I have a little suggestion about OS4Depot:
Is it possible when a new version of an archive arrives, the old version of it to be not overwritten but just moved to :oldversions/ for example?

Sometimes it's useful to have the old version of program/utilitity/game/driver because the new version unless new features and bugfixes can have new bugs introduced, higher memory requirements or different filehandling etc... Or for the people who joined later to have access to these files too, for sentimental, historical or other reasons.

Back in the old days when Aminet was active I bought almost all the Aminet CDs not only because you can have the software this way, but because there were some older versions of the programs, which weren't available anymore on the net.

well, even though there haven't been new uploads because the "stuff" isn't in place, it still is a useful place to find files and i've gone and done that for the last couple of weeks.

there is still gold in there.
