Right now, this isn't very well specced out in DOAP. Specifying  
multiple releases for each version is simply a matter of repeating  
the file-release property. To indicate OS we would need to make a new  
class.

Here's a quick sketch of how this might work, but please note this  
isn't in any way conclusive. Suggestions very welcome on how we might  
model this.

  <doap:file-release>
    <doap:FileRelease rdf:about="http://path/to/whatever.zip">
       <doap:os>Windows</doap:os>
    </doap:FileRelease>
</doap:file-release>
