Hi

Like you already have for Joml on the download page it would be useful  to have versions on the other third party libraries. My request is personally for GLFW, there is a fix in version 3.3 and I wanted to know if any of the download versions include this with out downloading everything.

LWJGL snapshots come with GLFW snapshots, so they usually include the latest updates from glfw/master.

For the exact revision, the information already exists. If you open the natives jar files (e.g. lwjgl-glfw-natives-windows.jar), you'll find a .git file that corresponds to each shared library. The file contains the git revision that was used to build the corresponding shared library. For example, glfw.dll.git in the latest snapshot contains 7a8516d(...), which is this commit from 3 days ago.

Thanks spasi, I realise I can get the version post download, it was just a request to have it on the release \ stable download pages before I download. Good to know about the snapshot download though

I have started adding detailed version information in the release notes. E.g. see 3.1.1 and 3.1.2.
