You should probably link to the http and https versions of the Git repository. You can check out the code using the git command: git clone http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-cloudstack.git Committers should use the secure repository: git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-cloudstack.git Also, I would not link to the Citrix CloudStack Github repos. This page has various issues with it, as I have addressed in a previous thread that is still not resolved. Linking to it from this section only compounds those issues IMO. Two thoughts from me: > > 1 - Once we do a second ASF release, we'll add a link to the Apache > release archives in the "Older CloudStack Releases" section. > Remember that we'll probably end up with various active release lines, so the page has to support those. You could have a 5.0.x section, and a 4.0.x section, for example. If they are active (i.e. we're still releasing minor updates, bugfixes, then they both need to be prominantly displayed on this page.) When we make them inactive, we simply remove them from this page, and from the dist dir. At that point, we can add a link that takes you to the archived dist dir, but it should be a low key text link at the bottom. > 2 - Should we include the URLs (and instructions for how to configure) > for Wido's DEB repo?
