I think the 'Package Information' section would be more appropriate, 
personally, perhaps with a title like "Wget download list-file"...

...I also think it's a bit redundant having the same 'md5sum' link on 
every page. The ideal would be to split it into categories, & then each 
md5sum-file could be saved at the same time as the sources & used with 
the '-c' option to check the downloaded files en masse. I'm building 
Xorg-7.2 at the moment, & even if i was strictly adherring to the book & 
scripting each section, that 'md5sum -c' option would still spew out 
loads of annoying errors. As it is, i'm manually checking each package's 
md5sum as i go, because i'm building them selectively, one at a time 
(i'm including xcb to see how the updates go...).

Just my opinion,
