Since we regularly find ourselves with out of date information here we clearly
need to do something, right now we make it seem like 14 isn't available for
download a month out from the release.

Another option is to just remove the table alltogether and leave the platform
support information to the EDB landing page?  Since we don't offer direct
downloads via deeplinks, separating the platform support info and the actual
download is a bit strange anyways.
