["Charlie Poole" <charlie@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I haven't had any comments on this so I'm going ahead and
changing the urls for the current projects to remove exact
version numbers from the names, as follows:

  nunit-2.5 => nunitv2
  nunit-3.0 => nunit-core

I'll have to go through the launchpad admins to do this
and I'll do them separately, one at a time. I'll post
announcements when each url is changed.

Charlie
