I've done some further work.

http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/test/index_droplist.html

What is working:

- Filesizes are shown for selected full install + langpack.
- Checksum links are shown for selected full install + langpack.
- When choices are done a little help icon is shown. Click on it to get
  to a help text for "full install vs. langpack".
- Some release data is shown like in the green box.

What is not yet working:

- The version dropdown box has no effect yet but it shows already how
  it could work (likely).

- I've not tested with all browsers. So, maybe something is not working.

What are the next steps:

- Reduce the additional links in the green box and re-work in the right
  hand nav bar - delete duplicates, change order/positions, delete if
  not needed here, etc.

  In general, this should result in a clean-up.

- Make the version drop-down box work to choose from older releases.

After that I'll publish a new update to the webpage and go on with your further comments and suggestions.

So, please have a look and don't hesitate to comment.

Thanks

Marcus

Thanks a lot for your input.

A few of them (delete some obviously not needed text, make the choice
order of the drop-dwn boxes irrelevant) are already committed. But the
most need more time.

Please don't expect to have this full-featured for the AOO 4.1.0
release. I need more time to do all this. Luckily the need work-free
days are coming. :-)

Hi all,

while enjoying the Easter time I made some progress about a long-term
problem:

- Downloading the offered file via the green box is fast and easy
- Downloading a different file than the offered is not

Via the big table on the "other.html" is now easy to maintain for us but
has no improvement for the user as it is large and complex.

Therefore I've thought of making another offer directly on the main
download webpage:

http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/test/index_droplist.html

Please don't look too close to look & feel - sure the grey color is not
the best one ;-) - this can and will be improved for sure.

For now please have a look for the functionality via the drop-down boxes
and the then created links below them.

What do you think? is this a direction we can/should go in general?
Or do you have complete different thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Marcus
