Proposal for using github releases to provide the latest .jar

[Javier gómez]

Hi,

Right now the .jar are uploaded to http://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html, but I would suggest to use (not as alternative but as a second possibility) to upload the JAR to the Github Release:

That way we could easily download with:

https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/releases/releases/latest

or with the Github Releases API https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/releases/#get-the-latest-release

Files can be added via Github User Interface 

Or via Github API:

?access_token=$githubToken&name=" . $zipfile . "&size=" . $filesize,

With "Content-Type" => "application/zip"

how does it sound?

+1.  It *is* one extra step in the release process, but I do think it would be useful.  It makes sense to hold the jar file in the Releases page of Selenium.

I actually revoke my plus 1.. 

when i think about it more, it'd be better just to have the link to the jar put into the description.  like so:

https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/releases/tag/selenium-2.52.0
