(3) It's hard to find the downloads
I'm surprised by the number of requests I get which are "where are the
downloads?" Even though downloads are on the home tab, they clearly
aren't visible. So make downloads its own tab?
The real estate of a web browser can accommodate only so many tabs, so
we have to choose carefully. I'm hoping to free up some time soon to
look more closely at each of these areas.
That is somewhat surprising, yes. One alternative approach that might
help (if adding a new "Downloads" tab is too much), is to add a
"Downloads" section (with links to the real downloads page) high up on
the main page (somewhere around "News" and "Derby Project Charter").
Those headings are among the firsts things I notice when I go to
http://db.apache.org/derby/. Just a thought.
