I don't think we have a tool issue here. We already have several people that help with managing the website and that works pretty well. I think the confusion about what to download can be addressed by providing less options. Maybe we just have too many of them... The initial idea was that in particular newcomers would just download the one-click image. In the meantime we got a one-click image with and without COG. Then people asked for direct shortcuts on the home page for the stable core, the unstable core, and the stable full image. Of course this makes everything very complicated for people who don't know what they want/need. So we should think again about what images we want to provide for download and how to link them. Cheers, Adrian
