Better Layout for Artifact Download Box
---------------------------------------

                 Key: MRM-1463
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-1463
             Project: Archiva
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Web Interface
    Affects Versions: 1.3.4
            Reporter: Lucien Weller
         Attachments: download-layout-patch.zip

The download box in Archiva behaves not well regarding following conerns:
* box is too small, in any case with our namin conventions where artifacts may 
have up to 20 characters
* size is display in raw byte value, which is more confusion than useful when 
sizes become bigger
* when several artifacts for a given version, only distinguished by classifier, 
are deployed in repository, not clear hint is display to recognized them

I tried to improve this issues with folloowing changes:
* enlarged box to 280px (CSS and images)
* display size in KB, MB, GB depending on effektive size
* added classifier next to type when available

Hope this path may be use fule for Archiva team and would be applied for one of 
the next maintenance releases.
