welcome to the differences between "snapshots" and final releases. remember your first installer, when you removed the call to the URL that shows the welcome page? you want to do that for a release. the idea of the web page redirect is that snapshots are short lived - hence upon installation the users are directed to a webpage that tells them whether they have the bleeding edge / latest snapshot or not. it could be extended to releases, but I would do it differently. there is no need for dynamics, so rather than the url with ?SVN=... I would put a fix URL inside url.txt, pointing it to a web page that is specific for that release, e.g. http://hugin.sourceforge.net/installed/0.8.0.shtml (which does not exist yet) and put on that page the information relevant to the release. and: for an official release package you want to polish the warnings and other text. they are all snapshot specific. one wants to hope that we did some polishing before releasing final 0.8.0. Ad (and anybody else) can continue to build and publish snapshots, the system will be trimmed so that it points you to the very latest based on SVN number. If 64bit snapshots become current and asynchronized with 32bit snapshots, we may need a more fine grained solution in the short term. in the long term i'd like to see both 32 and 64 bit snapshots produced with a single script like the one used by Ad.
