Some thoughts:

In the Linux world it's better to have the source code first, and compiled
version for convenience.

For squeak-3.11 there's the source code and it's easy to build following
instructions included in the README. It's clean.

For exupery-vm several people have already asked for source code on this
list to create packages for their favorite distrib.  Furthermore the binary
is named squeak, not pharo-vm or whatever.... not really cool. Lot of
garbage in the archive. Exupery vm for windows is cleaner (but contains one
file called Squeak.exe ;) ).

Why on Mac it's squeak 4.2.2 b1, on windows/linux squeak 3.11 ? I suppose
there's an influence on unit tests / performance / ....

Finally I don't know why there's an "alternative" download ... I think the
alternative stuff should be on the wiki, not on the basic download page.

Cheers,
Laurent
