http://<host>/Apache/BeanUtils/jar/<id>[-<version>].ext
Here is a different view,
<host>/<group>/<project>/<type>/<id>-<version>[.ext]
I would like to see the group as completely different from the project name but what the user is used to, like an "XML" group, "WebServices" group, "Testing".... Thoughts ? Because sometimes, the project names don't say what they are actually meant to do, and even if it says they could be acronyms or something indirect, so having a meaningful group and then whatever project falls under that will be a good one for the users.
And I think version should be mandatory, since that is the killer in the java world.
