Ok, so here is what I found:
The ".tar.gz" seems to be correct when downloaded by direct click on the web
page. However, when I extract it using B1 archiver, the ".tar" is indeed a web
page html.
".tar.gz" (opened in notepad++)

Subject: Re: Corrupt artifacts on Qpid release web page
Hello Adel,
I have problems reproducing. On both windows (IE & Chrome) and
Linux (Firefox) the download does not start automatically.
In any case, did you check the content of the thing you downloaded
to see whether it is a html page or a binary (probably gz)?
For example opening it in a text editor.
In case it is as I suspect the html page you could try using
cURL's -L switch to make it follow redirects.
Kind regards,
Lorenz
