It may be so, please explain to make me understand.
Sorry - poor explanation - if I'm at /download/, and then hit 'Software' in the the menu to the left, I find myself at /download/index.php which is the same screen so until I spot the 'other platforms' link in the center orange box I'm stuck. (This is OS X / Safari behavior) The orange box in the center looks to a casual user as if it is the Mac download box - maybe we need to give some more prominence to the other binaries by name in this box? > >> Perhaps the download link should go directly to the /download/software.php >> page? > >> From newcomers I got lots of feedback to avoid the complex table > as landing page... so I made the "new" one (some months old). but doesn't it just lead to the same place and require the user to make the same analysis of their needs? Not a big deal in the grand scheme of all the great work done on GRASS.
