Source page fixed now points to IceBreaker Source
“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.” Dr. Seuss
Shouldn't it point to the folder (http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Source%20(IceBreaker)/) Rather than the download itself (http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Source%20(IceBreaker)/icebreaker-1.9.6-src.tgz/download)?

If some one wants to view source code they will need to download it won't they? Just saving a few clicks........

We keep the link static so it doesn't need to be updated for every release. Plus several apps have multiple source files. And it makes it easier for someone to find older versions.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
was just trying to help I go back to my corner

It's just one more thing to update (amongst like 12) for each release. And since only a couple dozen people download the source... and they're gonna be geeks like us anyway and can handle picking the right version... it's much easier to leave it be. Especially as every single app has differently named and version ordered source files (unlike the apps which are all in our filename setup).
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
But I was going to say that when I click a "Source" link, I either expect to See the Source, or to see what I'll be downloading, then I choose weather I really want to download the source right now or not.

the fix so now it conforms to the method of fixing being static

Wow, the list is quite impressively large when you look at it on the one page (I knew quite a number of the apps were affected, but wow...). I've just posted an apology for not mentioning it sooner in the original thread that 3D1T0R linked to above - so again, sorry about that everyone
I used to have a sig...until one of the mods ate it
It's not a problem that you hadn't mentioned it before, it's just that if you had mentioned it earlier, it could have been addressed earlier.

I'd hit up a lot of these as we updated apps and in spare time here and there, but I just went through every one of them again now to be sure and updated all the stragglers. All of the app pages now have direct source links which saves folks a couple extra clicks on SourceForge.

Thanks John
