TLContrib is a website + repository that hosts contributed packages for TeX Live 2010. The packages on TLContrib are packages that are not distributed inside TeX Live proper for one or another of following reasons: * because it is an intermediate release for testing.

Will it be possible to filter out the testing releases? Many people would only want to update to those package and binary versions that are declared (reasonably) stable.

I think you will have to look at the version information. There is no clean way to handle this server-side except to create a secondary TLContrib repository, and I am not eager to do that just yet. Best wishes, Taco
