In that case, I'd rather provide direct links in the announcement and on
/developer/beta. There's no excuse to make people hunt for the beta
instead of making it obvious.
HOWEVER, I would like a change to where the betas are posted (Marc, you
listening?). Please put all betas at:
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/v8.4beta/ http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.3beta/win32/
Instead of putting each beta version in a path like:
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/v8.4beta1/ http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.3beta1/win32/
That way, we won't have to keep updating the links every where for each
beta and RC release; the directories will remain the same.
