thanks for all the valuable feedback on the new download page. I have tried to implement the majority of your suggestion for improvement in the newest version which you can find at http://www.suse.de/~fs/opensuse/download/index_cols.html As always: Feedback is most welcome. (I wasn't able to test it on Windows and Mac so far, so there may be bugs on these platforms - though I hope not ...) I have discounted some of your suggestions - here are my reasons. If you think different, please bring them up again, so we can discuss them: * Orange colour: - open issue, though I am not sure it will change ;) * clickable icons in front of the download links - Sigh, is this really necessary? It's a pain to implement it in proper HTML (avoiding tables) for all browsers * a small text "right click on the icons to save as" - Why? A left click downloads the file ... * there should be some kind of recommendation to use a download manager for http/ftp - This is already mentioned in the "download help" page on the wiki * there should be some kind of explanation about md5sum Too confusing for beginners, especially from the Windows world. * links to the repositories http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/*/ - see link "Package Repositories" in the left navigation * the footnotes from current http://download.opensuse.org - I do not think this is the right place to tell people about the differences between the media. I would be happy to link to an appropriate article on the wiki... * should be nice to have text in variables to keep the same page through i18n - I haven't thought about maintaining the page, yet... -- Regards Frank Frank Sundermeyer, Technical Writer, Documentation SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg Tel: +49-911-74053-0, Fax: +49-911-7417755; http://www.opensuse.org/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Reality is always controlled by the people who are most insane (Dogbert) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
