Hey.

I just restructured the download page. Let me explain why, for the 115th
time:

  * Ordering of download links: Sources MUST be before convenience
    binaries. ASF releases are source packages, not binary stuff that
    no-one really knows where it came from.

  * 3rd-party downloads links: First of all, it's entirely unreasonable
    to put these first, before our official releases. We're supposed to
    be vendor-neutral. Accordingly, I put these at the bottom of the
    page. I also reduced the section to just a link to the 3rd-party
    download page, with a short description. We don't do advertising or
    analytics or whatnot for 3rd parties.

Please, guys, stop thinking with your employee hats on and start
thinking like ASF committers, i.e., neutral volunteers. This change of
viewpoint is, IMO, the biggest (and almost last) remaining hurdle before
graduation.
