Carsten Ziegeler commented on FELIX-690:
----------------------------------------
As a first step I've created a new macro which just creates the short links.
The new format is
{felixdownload:EXTENSION}filename_without_extension{felixdownload}
for example:
{felixdownload:jar}org.apache.felix.scr-1.0.0{felixdownload}
To create links for both tar.gz and zip a shortcut can be used by using the
extension "bin":
{felixdownload:bin}org.apache.felix.scr-1.0.0{felixdownload}
> Simplify the download page

> The download page is quite ugly and difficult to comprehend; no offense to
> those who created it. :-)
> I think it would be better if we could simplify it so that each downloadable
> release fit on a single line, something like:
> name [bundle] (asc,md5) [src tar.gz] (asc,md5) [src zip] (asc,md5)
> So, in other words, we would have four columns:
> 1. Name
> 2. Link to bundle JAR and its digests.
> 3. Link to src tar.gz and its digests.
> 4. Link to src zip and its digests.
> I don't think there is any reason to keep repeating the complete long file
> name, we just need a short anchor name for people to click on.
> Further, I think it would be better if the list could be alphabetized.
> Perhaps the only exception would be to include the bundled framework
> convenience release separate at the top.
