This had come up at some point, but I don't think we came to a
conclusion, so ...

Is it possible to have static URLs somewhere at lilypond.org that point
to the binaries of the latest stable and latest development releases?

The idea is for a script or program to be able to automatically retrieve
these binaries without a user having to manually specify them.

Use cases are: arbitrary scripts, Frescobaldi, (openLilyLib) automated
testing.

There should either be URLs for all provided versions or generic URLs
from which the link to a specific OS version can be generated.

An alternative would be a, say, JSON file with the URLs for *all*
available binaries, not only the respective "latest". I'm sure there
would be people around who'd appreciate the ability to choose arbitrary
versions from a Frescobaldi-generated dropdown list.

Any ideas?
