One box listing current php5 + php4 version and the current release candidates should be all that we need. The RC links obviously won't be direct links on the tarballs so the user still has a chance of understanding "wth is RC?". The release candidate links will point to qa.php.net/#v5 & #v4 where we'll add a big fat box explaining the concept of release _candidate_. The stable links then point to php.net/downloads.php#v5 & #v4 The only "major" change is how RM will post a new release; this patch expects all current (stable and (if any) rc) in include/version.inc See attached, simplified, patch & screenshot: http://home.oslo.nith.no/~maghan/releases.png We can then provide a Atom+SLE feed with latest versions with direct links to the stable releases and a link to qa.php.net with RCs.... If I am totally off base here, scream :) -Hannes
