OK, added.

I think it is fine to add both links.  For Haskell packages, people do
publish only the binary link (see
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/bzlib for example). But what does
user expect to see is a non-trivial question. NixOS is relatively
modern distribution and IMHO site doesn't represent the best way of
installing packages: experienced user would not go for "one-click
install" link on the site, but rather type 'nix-env -i <package>' to
automatically select the binary (or build it from source if there is
no binary in cache) and install it.

Thanks!  Would it be idiomatic to link to both of the URLs you gave?  That
is, would a seasoned NixOS user expect to see the package
advertised/distributed in that way?

Hi. I noticed the 'Popular package systems' section on the main page.
Could you please add link to NixOS (www.nixos.org) package?

The binary url of a package:

http://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixos/trunk-combined/nixpkgs.urweb.x86_64-linux


Build rule (for reference) is on the GitHub

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/compilers/urweb/default.nix
