Most people just want to 'download LibreOffice', not decide between arbitrarily different versions. As with other projects, it needs to be blindingly obvious what the default selection is. I do like the vertical coloured bar in Marc's mockup, but the choice of links is confusing. Visually Christoph's suggestion separates the default choice from the rest, but still permits first and furious users to get bleeding edge stuff by scrolling a bit. +1 for Christoph's suggestion I would second Nik's point about confusion over what the different categories of user are. There is no point asking a user if they are a Category X user if they don't know what that is. >> <Nik> >> http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:PROP_DownloadsPage_110606NS.jpg I like This does make it easier to get the right version, but I'd prefer there to be a simple 'Download LibO!' button for the vast majority of downloads. Ideally we'd handle upgrading to later versions inside the application ('get me the latest and greatest even if it's not so stable').
