|
| When you announce new patches on the site (the page that I'm directed to when I start NO) it would be useful if, in addition to the size of the patch file, you could indicate the date it was released. |

also, and i have no idea how hard this would be...
i still run 1.1 beta. i opened neo the other day and the update thing popped up with the new patch... which was an RC patch. would there be a way to send old versions to the main d/l page? or even just html at the top that appears if you have an older version saying you need to update? |

It says in big, bold letters "Download the Latest Bug Fixes for NeoOffice/J 1.1 Release Candidate" 
I think anything else will require adding a lot more complexity in Patrick's patch-check script, if it's even possible.
As for ksg's request, I'm not sure why adding the date released would be helpful? Either Neo/J tells you you need a patch and takes you to that page, or Neo/J determines you have the latest patch and doesn't load the page, right?
