Of course, the separation can be implemented in different ways. > test/latest > test/contrib > > curr/latest > curr/contrib Why not keep the directory structure simple, and have eg, setup-test.ini, setup-curr.ini, setup-prev.ini. That way no tarballs need to be moved/copied from test to curr after found stable. Also, you'll want test to be afull release (ie, include 'curr' packages for packages that don't have a test version).
