You can also get older releases by using the offset parameter in the download page. For example, download page from 7 days ago: http://download.slicer.org/?offset=-7
217+
218+
To get a direct download link of previous revision on a selected operating system: http://download.slicer.org/download?os=macosx&stability=any&offset=-1
219+
220+
Always include these parameters:
221+
222+
stability, which can be release, nightly, or any
223+
os, which can be win, macosx, or linux
224+
Additional options:
225+
226+
revision built before or on the date: date=2015-01-01
227+
same but checkout date: checkout-date=2015-02-01
228+
exact revision: revision=27000
229+
revision less than of equal: closest-revision=26000
230+
latest revision of 4.3 branch, can include patch as well: version=4.3
231+
Any of these queries can be combined with the offset param, which will step forward or backward a given number of revisions. So, stability=release&version=4.5.0&offset=-1 should give you the revision just before the first 4.5 release.

Does Slicer work for non-English computing?
242+
At this point no, Slicer uses US English conventions. Specifically this means that directory paths should use ASCII characters only.
243+
244+
There has been some discussion and planning about internationalization but it is not yet available:
