I agree. I wouldn't need to screen scrape dlang.org in DVM.
I'd be much more inclined to keep a file called LATEST with
the version
number in it than having to maintain a ton of redirects each
time.
(not present yet, but for example)
http://downloads.dlang.org/releases/LATEST containing one line:
2.066.1
That would do the trick.
That's already available by scanning the dmd tags in github. We
do that in dlang.org/posix.mak:
Can't use that because we tag a new version before releasing it,
so for a few days services couldn't use LATEST.
