That's a lot of files to choose from. Not so much > of a problem for the snapshots, but for a full release, I think it is. Maybe put those 6 choices in 6 subdirs? Or 4 subdirs, or 2? Or use file names that make the choices clearer? Separate subdirs might be clearer, I think. And that could let the file names, as well as the subdir names, be clearer. (And each subdir could even have a small README that describes the contents in plain English.) Anyway, it's a good idea to pose the question - how best to organize and present the choices to users. You might get some good suggestions that will help. (And thanks again for the builds.)
