Hi,

As a result of bug 871120 [1], I think, the file at

http://www.seamonkey-project.org/seamonkey_versions.json

no longer contains JSON parseable information about latest release
version of SeaMonkey. At the es-ES website, we use that file (and
other equivalente JSON files for other Mozilla products) to build up
an automated downloads page pointing to the binaries hosted at
mozilla.org. I guess we are not the only place doing this, as I
understand the JSON files are intended precisely to automating
retrieval of versions and binaries from other machines (and sites alas
C|net downloads seem to be obvious candidates for that).

Anyway, I'd like to know if there is a substitute for the above URL,
or if it will be restored to point to the current location for
SeaMonkey binaries and langpacks.

TIA

He, I didn't even know that file existed! Anyway, this is fixed now (see
bug for details). Thanks for noticing.

Greetings,
