Lewis John McGibbney commented on CLIMATE-521:
----------------------------------------------

bq. There is no link to the KEYS file.
There is now - http://climate.apache.org/downloads.html#pgp-signature
bq. Also there is no explanation as to how users can perform the verification.
There is now - http://climate.apache.org/downloads.html#verify-releases
bq. Further, there should be links to hashes and sigs for the archived releases.
I've made best efforts to guide people here - 
http://climate.apache.org/downloads.html#previous-releases
I've never before provided links to hashes and sigs for all previous releases 
on the main downloads page. I think that this is unnecessary.
bq. The phrase "release signature(s) e.g." is inaccurate, as only the .asc file 
is a signature, the others are hashes.
This is not true, there were two .asc files, however the wording has been 
changes none-the-less
bq. Note that the download link could be customised as follows:
Done
bq. Aside: the page uses slightly different colours of blue for headings and 
links; this is quite confusing.
Thank you for the criticism it is taken on board. I think we _may_ be in for a 
website overhaul soon, so this may actually change sooner rather than later.

OK [[email protected]], I hope that this issue can now be resolved and closed 
off. Thanks for the input.
