             Summary: Download page does not link to release artifacts
                 Key: XGC-115
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XGC-115
             Project: XMLGraphicsCommons
          Issue Type: Improvement
         Environment: https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/commons/download.html
            Reporter: Sebb


Unlike most other download pages, the names of the release artifacts (e.g. 
xmlgraphics-commons-2.3-src.zip) are not linked to anything.

Instead the user has to follow the links from a different page of the page.
Very tedious.

Most other download pages link directly to the specific file within the ASF 
mirror system.

For example, using the link:

www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/xmlgraphics/commons/source/xmlgraphics-commons-2.3-src.zip

only one further click is needed.

And if you use the the following link

http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi?filename=/xmlgraphics/commons/source/xmlgraphics-commons-2.3-src.zip&action=download

even that is not necessary.
