for fututre Releases

[Ahmed Kadwa <ak...@grintek.com>]

Hi, 
 
It would be useful to also include an xdelta that can be downloaded to
upgrade between releases. 
See: http://www.kdevelop.org/index.html?filename=3.2/download.html 
 
The xdelta can de used to patch the tar.gz binary to the latest release.

 
I really enjoy using subversion & all the guys that have contributed to
this effort really deserve a pat on the back 
 
Regards 
 
Thanks

What about committing the binaries to a (separate) distribution repo?

This would be a fairly non-standard way of distributing new releases,
and although I see the advantages for low-bandwidth users, I think the
extra trouble would not be worth it for the release manager(s).
Especially since most people seem to be getting Subversion from their
operating system's package distribution system, not from source,
anyway.
