The checksums file is ready:

It's nice, even though a bit scary (four different verification
mechanisms are probably overkill); but this will satisfy everybody, so
OK.
I see that many links in that page are broken (e.g., links to Windows
builds, to 64-bit DEBs and so on); I tend to believe this is known
and/or wanted for the time being, but, if it isn't, just click
around on
that page and you will see plenty of broken links.
we can potentially drop one sha checksum ;-)
Yes, for sure.
I have drafted the download page on the project page.
That's good.
An additional link to the (upcoming) official announcement (mail
archive, blog post, etc.) would be good.
http://openofficeorg.staging.apache.org/openofficeorg/downloads.html
Review is appreciated.
- downloads of source files via Apache mirrors
- SDK as well
- checksum files directly from dist
Do you have any special reason to show download links also here? All is
(will be) available in the download area (currently here:
"http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/test/index_new_dl.html"; and
"http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/test/other_new_dl.html";).
Otherwise I would suggest that the webpage points only to the already
existing download webpages. Then we will have less work when updating
downloads.
Source --> http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html#tested-sdk
SDK --> http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html#tested-sdk
Binaries --> http://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html
Checksums --> http://www.openoffice.org/download/checksums.html
by the way why do you have created a new checksums file and not extended
the other.html. I think there is enough place and the context is much
clearer as on a further page.
The context would fit, yes. But IMHO there is no place left.
If it would be combined than every table cell would have 5 download
links. much to much to keep it simple.
A better idea is to integrate the hash links into the green box. And
this came from you. :-) It's on the list for improvements and I'll try
to do it after the first dust has settle. Then the separate webpage is
just a fallback.

If you want to mention the legacy builds it would be great to point also
here to the respective webpage:
"http://www.openoffice.org/download/legacy/index.html";.
If you want to mention the archive in general (prior OOo 3.3.0) this
link is helping: "http://www.openoffice.org/download/archive.html";.
