On http://basex.org/products/download/zip-download/ it downloads http://files.basex.org/releases/6.6.2/BaseX662.zip but the link on the page points to http://files.basex.org/releases/6.6/BaseX66.zip
Also, I really hate the "download should start automatically" option. I practically never sit in front of the computer on which I develop, so why you're sucking up my home bandwidth by trying to send a copy of .zip to my laptop is beyond me. A good alternative may be a green Download button like on Sourceforge or other sites.
On a related note, I notice that BaseX server now has a startup script that requires three other jar files - are those needed? Why do I need, for instance, tagsoup when I'm not planning on parsing any HTML.

sorry I think I lost you on this one, or somebody already changed the link to point to the correct location or I can't find the page you reference to in your last sentence. :-)

We will think this one over, we are sorry it causes inconveniences for you. I guess most users actually use the machine they are sitting in front of for developing, so nobody complained so far. Maybe browsing files.basex.org might be more to your taste.

If you remove e.g. tagsoup from the CP the server will start without support for tagsoup, so you may still start a "vanilla server".
Kind regards
