+What this file does:
+ - Generates the download links found at qa.php.net
+ - Determines which test results are emailed to news.php.net/php.qa.reports
+ - Defines $QA_RELEASES for internal and external (api.php) use, contains all qa related information for future PHP releases
+
+Documentation:
+ $QA_RELEASES documentation:
+ Configuration:
+ - Key is future PHP version number
+ - Example: If 5.3.6 is the latest stable release, then use 5.3.7 because 5.3.7-dev is our qa version
+ - Typically, this is the only part needing changed
+ - active (bool):
+ - It's active and being tested here
+ - Meaning, the version will be reported to the qa.reports list, and be linked at qa.php.net
+ - File extensions .tar.gz and .tar.bz2 are assumed to be available
+ - release (array):
+ - type: RC, alpha, and beta are examples (case should match filename case)
+ - version: 0 if no such release exists, otherwise an integer of the rc/alpha/beta number
+ - sha256_bz2: sha256 checksum of this downloadable .tar.bz2 file
+ - sha256_gz: sha256 checksum of this downloadable .tar.gz file
+ - sha256_xz: sha256 checksum of this downloadble .xz file
+ - date: date of release e.g., 21 May 2011
+ - baseurl: base url of where these downloads are located
+ - Multiple checksums can be available, see the $QA_CHECKSUM_TYPES array below
+ Other variables within $QA_RELEASES are later defined including:
+ - reported: versions that make it to the qa.reports mailing list
+ - release: all current qa releases, including paths to dl urls (w/ sha256 info)
+ - dev_version: dev version
+ - $QA_RELEASES is made available at qa.php.net/api.php
+
+TODO:
+ - Save all reports (on qa server) for all tests, categorize by PHP version (see buildtest-process.php)
+ - Consider storing rc downloads at one location, independent of release master
+ - Determine best way to handle rc baseurl, currently assumes .tar.gz/tar.bz2 will exist
+ - Determine if $QA_RELEASES is compatible with all current, and most future configurations
+ - Determine if $QA_RELEASES can be simplified
+ - Determine if alpha/beta options are desired
+ - Unify then create defaults for most settings
+ - Add option to allow current releases (e.g., retrieve current release info via daily cron, cache, check, configure ~ALLOW_CURRENT_RELEASES)
