It would make more sense and be more useful for scripted downloading to have only one nano-*.tar.gz in https://www.nano-editor.org/dist/latest/. Previous versions can be in https://www.nano-editor.org/dist/v2.8/ or the appropriate directory.

'latest' is just a symlink to the last-created subdirectory, in this case v2.8.
If it were a separate dir, I would have to copy a new tarball twice, and then
remove the earlier one.  I'm not going to do that.
