I posted this same question to this list yesterday. I worry constantly
about Apple's paranoid, unpredictable, and inconsistent download and
install processes. One never knows what they might delete without asking.

After all the stories I've heard, I've been zipping the older Xcode, (which
is now a bundle 'folder') just in case. My last version that could create a
iOS 5 app was Xcode44-DP7.app.     Also we should be aware that both are
betas and going to iOS6 is supposedly not reversible on the devices.   The
original iPad and the 3gs are totally out of the loop at this point but we
need to support the 'old' phones.
