question about source download site.

Hi,

I have a small question about the site of PostgreSQL source.
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/

Now I can see some directories of PostgreSQL 9.2beta1/2.
- v9.2.0beta1
- v9.2.0beta2
- v9.2beta1
- v9.2beta2

It seems to be pointed the same direcotory with each version.
- v9.2beta1 => v9.2.0beta1
- v9.2beta2 => v9.2.0beta2

I don't know why it's duplicated.
acording to my memory, it's not duplicated when 9.1 has released.

anyone knows the reason ?

There was a discussion about release versioning:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2012-06/msg01100.php

I don't know the conclusion though.

Those are just symlinks. You'll notice that if you click them, they
point to the same URL.
