Thanks Jarek for proposing this.

One minor question I have on this is how we put this side-by-side with the "
*Install*" tab/button on our site.

Due to how Python packages work, for most users, there is no process of "
*Download*". Instead, it is always an "*Install*" process. So for a new
user visiting our site, does she/he click the "Install" button or click the
"Downloads" page? This may cause minor confusion from the site UX aspect.

But overall this is a good idea to me, if it's a requirement to have such a
page in order to do the release announcement via [email protected].


XD
