Download links

As most of you know, over the past few months I've been making
incremental changes to the downloads pages to make it easier for
people to find the PostgreSQL downloads they need. This included
bringing together all the binary package and source options for
different OS's and making them easy to browse and choose.

On the homepage we have a number of links that point to the binaries
section of our ftp site, to encourage people to upgrade as well as
install for the first time. The problem is, most of the binaries we
offer in the downloads section don't actually live on our ftp site, so
for may people these links are useless and misleading. I propose we
change that section of the home page to look something like:

Latest Releases

8.3.3: Notes
8.2.9: Notes
8.1.13: Notes
8.0.17: Notes
7.4.21: Notes

<link to /downloads>Downloads</link>

RSS | Why should I upgrade?

The downside is that this may lead to a couple of extra clicks for
people to find what they need. The upside is that the pages they go to
will almost certainly have a section for the packages they actually
want, and should be more simple and easy to understand.

Thoughts?
