Hi Dennis! Thanks a lot for the feedback. Those are indeed great ideas!
The download page is a great idea. I'm not sure if we can make the changelog easy. Usually this is contained in the release package anyway. We can of course add a link to our JIRA which also contains this info or even copy them over to a 'Changelogs' page with more info and explanations.
