+1 for git but one doesn't need knowledge just to download versions. github serves out 29 releases up until 2.0.2 (2 years ago) and google code to 1.77.1 (whoa, 4 years ago)
Just "tested" it, takes for github - 1 click on this link https://github.com/web2py/web2py/releases - 1 click on the provided zip/tar links while for googlecode - 1 click on this link http://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/list - 1 click on the "tag" select - 1 click to choose the version - 1 click on the "download zip" adiacent To be sure to cut off now and for any foreseeable future "lazy click guys" requesting a specific release, I just made a 1-click-solution for @all http://web2py.googlecode.com/archive/R-1.77.1 http://web2py.googlecode.com/archive/R-1.77.2

There are a few releases that lived shortly because of some bugs (corrected in a later release): this means effectively that you'll need to read the CHANGELOG (if you haven't done already) to realize that the smart move is ALWAYS choose the latest release :-P On Friday, February 28, 2014 9:03:32 AM UTC+1, Tim Richardson wrote: > > > > On Friday, 28 February 2014 06:39:07 UTC+11, Niphlod wrote: >> >> 1 year and a couple of months later still my recommendations are valid :P >> > > In other words, learn git and then you can effortlessly move between any > version you want.
