These are all uploaded.

FWIW, I used this wget command to grab the files:

wget -np -nH --cut-dirs=3 -r -g on http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin/...

Unfortunately, I couldn't use a wildcard to download since comcast seemed
to block that.  So, I had to download each file one at at time.  It was still
nice to have the directory structure maintained, however.

I downloaded these to a separate directory then used 'cp -a -l . ~release/unison'
to copy them over.  Then I deleted the original directory.  This makes the
update more atomic than doing a normal copy or downloading the files directly
to the release directory.

I deleted older versions of packages where appropriate.

FYI.

P.S.  Thanks, Andrew for making sense out of this version number insanity.
