This template shows the latest releases available, displayed in an "infobox". You can control which lines appear in the infobox (except for the header and Stable: lines which will always show).
The actual links and strings for each line are separate from the template to simplify maintenance. To update a line in the infobox follow one of the links below:

Usage
Don't hardcode build and release information in pages. Unless a page is obviously historical (e.g. "April 2007 test results") never say "the current release is 708". Instead, invoke this template to present latest release information.
{{ Latest Releases | stable = inline <!-- OPTIONAL -- shows the stable flavors --> | rc = inline <!-- OPTIONAL -- shows the release candidate info --> | devel = inline <!-- OPTIONAL -- shows the devel-build info --> | livecd = inline <!-- OPTIONAL -- shows the live-cd info --> | firmware = inline <!-- OPTIONAL -- shows the firmware info --> | server = inline <!-- OPTIONAL -- shows the server info --> | extra = inline <!-- OPTIONAL -- shows the (optional) extra text --> | extra_text = whatever <!-- OPTIONAL -- comment text (if enabled by extra) if none defined: '<center>[[Autoreinstallation image|how to update...]]</center>' --> }}
If you just want to display a particular latest build within a paragraph, you can invoke one of the sub-templates:
The current release candidate is {{Latest Releases/rc}}
