Other idea:
- leave the first hotfix in the data package
- create a the hotfix package with the second hotfix
- upload a new revision of the -data package
  - new -data depends on -hotfix

Pro:
- save mirrors, users and everyone else to redownload -data
- save us to use an epoch for -data

Cons:
- ugly, since the hotfixes are seperated
- ugly, since the -data has a version indicating the first hotfix
  - that could confuse users

Other ideas?  Opinions?


Yours sincerely,
  Alexander
