It's also quite confusing that all the development builds that are being generated right now have been moved to the FreeCAD-Appimage github repo. That's obviously wrong to do because the Mac OS and Windows builds have nothing to do with the appimage.
Maybe the freecad-appimage repo should be renamed into "FreeCAD-Bundel". We add windows and osx later on because it's a similar workflow to create these bundles.
Yea, something generic like 'Bundle' makes sense. An aside, can you remind me why we:
1. Why was the 0.19_pre release deleted?
2. Why did we move the dev files to a separate repo: FreeCAD-Appimage ?

FreeCAD-App then. It reflects the Linux-AppImage, Apple's App-store, and Windows Apps. Good marketing

In the past we have always deleted the pre_ when the dev cycle ends and is replaced with the stable.
In the past we would have created 0.20_pre but instead we created weekly-builds. This should allow the link to be static going forward.
If the repo would be renamed (and I think it should be) I would like to ask it be done as soon as possible and then try to keep things in the same place, I want to give the guys at chocolatey the correct info but they are slow to accept the changes, it would be a pita to have them change the dev versions to FreeCAD-Appimage only for it to break two days later and then go again through the process to change it to FreeCAD-Bundle
OK, but we just broke a lot of downstream links.
I need to let fosstorrents, chocolatey devs know (possibly Arch linux and other experimental distro repos)
also I need to update the wiki AppImage page and the wiki bot script
