re: visad updates

Just a small request regarding the visad updates. Could there be some form of incremental versioning? I have used visad for about 18 months now and every single 'latest version' is called 2.0 ;) I can hear the chat now "Hey, that new visad jar you installed broke my app, I'll need to go back to version 2.0. Um, this IS version 2.0. Well, I want the other version 2.0" and so on....
I appreciate the 'LAST UPDATED' link on the visad home page, but that is 
of no help once you're using the library locally.
As a follow on, could the jars be built so that they unjar into a single 
directory, e.g. visad-2.0.1/visad/.... rather than just visad/.  Then a 
new download would go into a single directory, even if it was unjarred 
in the 'wrong' location.
OK, a third request, could the build system from source not be an via 
Ant?  I'll write and contribute the script myself even  Fiddling with 
classpath env vars and using Make seems a little dated in this Ant age.
Just my two cents.
