We have decided to retract the Jun2010 release.

Sjoerd,

it seems like the June2010 release has been removed from the download site, but no older release has been put there as a replacement. Currently, there seem to be no binary packages available for download.

This is only true for Debian/Ubuntu. The Fedora and Windows binaries are there. I'll put the Feb2010-SP2 packages back.

I think it would be a good idea in general to keep older releases around on the download site. There might be reasons why one wants to download one particular outdated release, and I don't think you're that tight on storage space that you have to delete old releases.

The reason this isn't done is that the Debian/Ubuntu tools do not cooperate (or perhaps it is my lack of understanding and willingness to learn). When I install a new package, the old version is automatically removed by the tools. I don't do it on purpose. -- Sjoerd Mullender
