The existing doc page explaining how to get fink (I > weakly like, and am also happy without)? A direct download to the current binary distribution. The reason for that is a usability one. I have noticed that we have many click paths which look like this: visit PDB, do search, look at package page, (go back), go to download page, download. We could easily shorten that down to visit PDB, do search, look at package page, download Obviously there is alos a reaosn of tracking statistics based on which package triggered a download. Which could be used to motivate the maintainer :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
