Hi,

the format we chose for lubuntu can be seen on the get lubuntu page [1]
Where the previous releases are renamed so that each time someone uses the
link they will always be prompted to get the current one, but can access
the older ones if they so desire. This is also an example of sandboxing, as
to edit all the various pages come release day would take a while! We have
the current+1 one already in draft mode[2] up so the wiki area can be
updated as soon as the announcement goes out.

Regards,

Phill.
