[Lucas Holt]

This might be useful for us to track updated GNUstep applications for  
mports.  it is also an interesting view of current apps that might be  
neat for a mports app list.

> Hi all,
> as a Christmas present to all, I have reworked a small part of the
> Software Index scripts and now it is easier to manage and view
> multiple versions of an application.
>
> * when creating/editing you are asked if you want to fix the version
> number or create a new record for an existing application.
> * when browsing for applications, they are sorted by release date.
> * when viewing an application there is now a pop-up button which
> easily allows to change and browse through all version.
> * if the selected version is not the latest, there is a notice that
> updates are available.

> So, friends, please try out and publish your latest GNUstep
> application and framework updates. And report bugs/feature requests or
> patches (it is open source!) for the SWI.

> What I want to suggest if someone is looking for a nice project: write
> a software updater that uses the SWI content in PList format (http://
> www.gnustep.org/softwareindex/plist.php) to show updates and allow for
> automatic download & install.
