Allow us to access Headless Directly without logging in.

Just a small idea is to be able to access the Headless Binaries without needing to login. Be very useful :)

EDIT: To be more clear rather then logging in the headless server should just be open access to everyone. In fact be nice to have a latest url or directory structure. That way if we have scripts etc we don't have to keep checking the next version up etc.

You mean for downloading an update?
I remember a recent FFF said the link for the headless binary is valid for 10 minutes from the moment it's generated, should be long enough for you to generate it on your desktop, then send the link to your server...

True but there is no need to have 10 min or 10 hours. It's not the client it should be open to anyone who wants to download it and run it. I think.

That's the idea, someone just has to do it.
