Hi Guys,
I might miss something here, but how about:
/mirrors/ <-- Mirror info here
/downloads/ <-- Packages, with a link to "mirrors"
Under /downloads/ we could have /major_version/version/files.bla e.g:
/downloads/3.1/3.1.7/squid-3.1.7.deb
/Version can still link to /downloads/
Cheers,
Pieter

The current website layout for Versions/ and Download/ is a little confusing
and I would like to combine the two into a simpler form.
The main problem is the download links and section called Download/ is just
documentation about downloading and mirrors. The actual download files
themselves are under Versions/. The link between the two is an easily
overlooked link on Download/ and there are several click layers to wade
through before any actual package link becomes available.
I would like to make the Download/ index page a redirect to Versions/ index
page, move the Download/ text to an intro for the Versions/ page, and add
some automated links from the Versions/ page straight to the latest tarballs.
Eventually I would like to link to the OS distro package sources of the
stale release(s) from here too and get rid of all those "where do I find
binaries for distro X" FAQs.
Comments? Other ideas?
Amos
