oh boy -- I just noticed that in download/test, in my browser the
explanatory items at the bottom on the green DL box are covered up. The
one that's currently in /download doesn't render this way.
And, well, I think for the sites that already HAD a /download area with
the old DL box before these changes, I will just use part of these new
changes to simplify things (the new green DL box). All of these old
sites had everything translated en masse, and substituting message
strings on them is a lot to do. :/ I did need to change optionset names
to match the new ones to do this.
Thanks for all your work on this.
