Jan Høydahl commented on LUCENE-8690:
-------------------------------------
This button is on the template which is on every page, not only on download
page. I guess if we removed the zip format we could link the button to latest
tgz binary? See LUCENE-6258 and LUCENE-5590 for earlier related discussions.
> Download button does not 'begin download'

> Key: LUCENE-8690
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8690
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Sebb
> Priority: Minor
>
> The download button on the page
> [http://lucene.apache.org/core/downloads.html]
> does not behave as the text suggests.
> It requires several more clicks before the download can start, and the user
> has to decide which link to click in the directory listing
> I'm not sure it adds any value to the page.
> The corresponding Solr download page does not have the button.
> IMO the button should be dropped; a single button can never start a direct
> download as there are two binaries.
> The existing binary links could be turned into direct download buttons if
> required.
