I noticed, but my pyramid fu is not good enough to fix it.
Should I submit a pyramid/web site bug report? Or can you fix it?

Notice that the Highlights page behaves the same way, whereas
the License and Bugs pages works correctly. I can't really spot
a difference in the sources: the subnav.yml files are identical
in all these.

Actually, looking more closely, it appears that the working
pages have a line

subnav: !fragment subnav.yml

in content.yml; this seems to make a difference. What does that
line mean?

Why is this a problem? The link is actually correct: The MSI
documentation is the same.

I reconsidered. Even though the documentation was nearly correct
(except that one limitation went away long ago), it's probably better
to have the documentation state 2.5 throughout. So I copied it,
changed the version numbers, and changed the links to refer to the
copy.

As I write the situation is an ugly mess, since the most visible link is 
just plain wrong. The page

   http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5/

has a block at the top right whose last link is Windows MSI installer. 
That links to

   http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5/msi/

which *also* has a block at the top right whose last link is Windows 
MSI installer. Unfortunately that takes you to

   http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5/msi/msi

by which time you have completely lost contact with any style sheet, and 
  despite the potential infinite regress have still not located the 
actual installer. The correct link is in-line:

   http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5/python-2.5.msi

I think the next time we redesign the web production system we should 
take the release managers' needs into consideration. They should have a 
simple form to fill in, with defaults already provided. As indeed should 
many other people ...

regards
