I see the non-releases have lost their -beta- (or -branch-) tags...

Is there anyway we can have them back, or some other way to distinguish
release filenames from betas/firstlooks/etc?

The reason I ask is that Debian includes an up-to-date checker for
package upstreams, which works off a regexp against urls on a page.

The regexp that I've been using up until now is:
http://secondlife.com/developers/opensource/downloads/.*/.*/slviewer-src[^-]*-(1\..*)\.tar.gz
and for the artwork:
http://secondlife.com/developers/opensource/downloads/.*/.*/slviewer-artwork[^-]*-(1\..*)\.zip
which has happily avoided the -beta- and otherwise tagged versions,
such as sculpties.

Now it tells me that I'm out of date, and that 1.18.0.0 is out, but of
course if I package that, people tracking my packages won't be able to
connect to the main grid. ^_^

I do have a kind of loose, long-term plan to parallel-package the beta
versions too, once I'm able to turn around builds faster. It'd be nice
to be able to construct a regular expression that tells me when those
are out of date.

Of course Pacman didn't influence us as kids. If it did,
we'd be running around in darkened rooms, popping pills and
listening to repetitive music.
