@nbashaw While I was thinking about what to suggest, I browsed the other suggestions here... and you know what? Rather than add to the noise I'd rather just add my voice here in that I think the "evergreen" side of Product Hunt is the least developed so far. In terms of discoverability and product pages... right now if you access an old "hunt" the prominent date telling you when it was featured immediately implies that the content is outdated.
I like Nathan's idea of having a core page for each product (almost like a product profile) with info on industry, purpose, pricing, and makers or company but then releasing each major feature update (or the original "hunt" for that product) as a separate Product Hunt post. That way there's one core page to refer back to for product info, and that opens up the use of Product Hunt to more of a go-to reference for everyone in the tech space when comparing software / tools.
Think Wikipedia / IMDP for products with functionality similar to http://alternativeto.net/
