LTS release dist directory #54

So far we've avoided having any generic "lts" or "latest lts" signifier, we're going to have up to 3 parallel lts lines as time goes on and automatically switching users from one lts to another just because one appears is not a great idea. We've decided with the linux distributions to not enable any kind of automatic semver-major upgrading, you have to opt in. Imagine doing an upgrade one day and going straight from v4 to v6, is that what a user would expect? So instead, perhaps you should grab https://nodejs.org/download/release/index.json and parse it to understand what the current status is and make decisions based on that. You shouldn't have to use the latest-* directories at all since you have all this information. Does that make sense for your use-case? |

open to suggestions, perhaps we should force |
@yosuke-furukawa @hokaccha Is it good to put v0.12/v0.10 out of lts flag and manage them separated from lts? |

LTS
release.problem
currently nodejs.org/dist and nodejs.org/download does not have

directory. sonodebrew
command does not recognize which version islatest LTS
version. As this blog,LTS
version will be even number andStable
version will be odd.I can recognize
LTS
version to parse the version number but I don't want to parse the number to implement easily and someeven
version may not beLTS
version in the future.hokaccha/nodebrew#47

ornodejs.org/download/lts
