Ok, understand  - it will be there once it's going online.

Yep, that's thinner than everything and I have never seen it before yo 
mentioned it - I think you get it.
My suggestion to keep it and to add the old Releases/Branches entry back in 
main menu - maybe without the submenues  - as second link main menu.

Geez; I wasn't aware that it's navigatable!! Great! A real easter-egg :)
Do it the old way as in current Releases/Branches; maybe put it on top.
Anyway "Releases/branches" is a better description and some epxlanation as 
today  will be useful.

:) None, at least none I like to read.
But we are talking about webpages - maybe I'm too long at the web and used to 
old-style... As I said it's a matter of taste,I'll try to keep up with new 
style.

I do not understand - I'll try again - is that content generated dynamically 
from the pages I browsed before?
