Yeah. We will have different URLs especially as more artifacts are
produced (airflow has 3 of those each with different download pages).

But this should be straightforward when you can add the url when
registering the release (as Sebb proposed). According to the release
process you should register each such "release type" separately and
adding a URL there will do the job nicely. And initially it can be
optional and once we figure out how to communicate it best and maybe
try with some projects first we can make it obligatory at release
registration. We could make it convenient - for example an easy way to
copy a previously added URL from selected previous release or
autocomplete from previous entries - making the process of entry as
smooth (or even smoother) than it is today.
