Review Comment:
   this page slowly mutated into a README, I think I mentioned that already 
when we updated the NB 16 dl page that we have too many copies of the same 
information.
   
   The README should be always up to date since it is part of the release.
   
   I did also update the wiki last week, mentioned the README and removed all 
version numbers from this page:
