The new package distribution at https://github.com/gap-system/PackageDistro collects meta data for all packages distributed with GAP.
One could teach PackageManager to use that data directly instead of going through PackageInfoURLs. This way, a single operation could get all the metadata (e.g. by fetching https://github.com/gap-system/PackageDistro/releases/download/latest/package-infos.json.gz) and parse it. By using this, and possible also tags like v4.11.1 (perhaps eventually also branches like stable-4.11, see gap-system/PackageDistro#297), one could do a variety of things:
v4.11.1
stable-4.11
CheckForUpdates
