What are the problems? Are there some past threads that I could review to better understand the issues at hand, and possibly postulate some potential solutions? It makes life so much simpler if we can prepare one package for all releases. I'd rather spend a lot of time upfront to solve the hard infrastructure problem rather than have to deal with a bunch of redundant work for every update.
