When upgrading to Kendo MVC, the existing method renames the folder inside the kendo folder instead of the files. This method of upgrading applications breaks them every time. The MVC Bundle.config allows the use of the wildcard {version} for version changes. Why not use this system instead of the upgrade method you use?
Your suggestion (explained in more detail in the comment) is possible if you do the necessary changes manually, Timothy. The convention fir using the version as a subfolder instead of including it as part of the file names would lead to unnecessary verbose names and mixture of files from different versions in the same folder, which we want to avoid.
Instead of "~/Content/kendo/2016.1.112/kendo.default.min.css", it would be preferable to be able to use "~/Content/kendo/kendo.{version}.default.min.css". Is this method possible?
