Hi Roger

Yes, you are right Jetty has a package for each major release. But as
can be seen on the "Jetty-42: Stable"-page:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=7322&package_id=61842
each minor revision contains several files. Eg. version 4.2.20 contains
an "all", an "extra", a "src", a "jboss"-release an so on.

This keeps all the files from one release grouped together (of course in
Jawin there are only two files for each release, a "src" and a "bin").

But you are also right that another way to order the files, would be in
a src-package and a binary-package, and then have the release spread
across these two packages. I don't think any of the two solutions is
"more correct" than the other, so you should just choose whatever you
find best, for the next release. I don't think there is any reason to
spend time on changing anything for this release, as we have a direct
link to the full filelist, from the Jawin frontpage
http://jawinproject.sourceforge.net/ - see the link: "Binary releases"
(which I should probably change to "Binary and source releases").

Best Regards and have a nice weekend
