Storing some recent "stable" 2.8 builds

With recent changes done in API blender 2.8 is quite instable those days, storing some old builds (5-10) may allow users to test not so cutting edges blender 2.8 in good conditions. Could either store buildbots ones on blender.org or graphicall .

The problem is that stability of new build is not predictable. So I store about 5 previous downloads. And if new one have bug, that bad for me personally, I overwrite it with previous.

But new bug, that is bad for me, can be not important for another user. So it is personal task.

I would imagine that as we get closer to the July release they'll have some release candidates. I can't imagine that it'll just be nightly builds nonstop right up until they kick a "final" out the door, but who knows.
