Re: Different versions of same module in custom update center

Marco,

I would like to be able to do this as well. In the past, whenever we've
wanted multiple versions available, we've had to make different auto-update
paths (e.g., somesite/location/update.xml vs.
somesite/otherlocation/update.xml). This is especially tricky if you have
multiple versions of NetBeans that the project has spanned across.

In other words, this solution works, but it isn't ideal or exactly what you
are looking for. If you find a better way, I'd love to hear about it too.
