[Rd] Small request.

This is (hopefully) a small request.

I routinely build (and test) both R versions from sources on my system
(WinXP).  I would like to be sure that I have the current version of
Rtools.  I always go to Robert Murdoch's site "Building R for Windows" and
check the latest news.  Everything I need is explained there, except I
never know if I have the most recent version of  Rtools.exe.  I see
Rtools28.exe but my understanding is that this file is "refreshed" quite
frequently.  Is so, would it be possible to include some version numbering
scheme in its name?  Perhaps a build date stamp can be included instead?

Thanks in advance,

Andy
