Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-1024:
--------------------------------------
As a lo-tek version of this, I just re-organized the download directory, moving
releases each into separate subdirectories, then adding a symlink named
'stable' to a release subdir. A link to current seems redundant here, since
that's obviously the highest version number. I already move old releases to an
archive directory, so there're never too many items there. I also added a link
to 'stable' in the HEADER.html, served up by most mirror ftp servers.
It will take a day or so for these changes to be visible on mirrors. Check it
out and tell me what you think.

> I think it would be worthwhile to add two lines to the top of the welcome
> website page:
> Stable version: 0.10.1
> Latest version: 0.11.1
> With the number linking off to the respective release like so:
> http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/lucene/hadoop/hadoop-0.10.1.tar.gz
> We can promote versions from Latest to Stable when they have proven
> themselves.
> Thoughts?
