Download page enhancement request
« on: September 06, 2011, 02:02:23 AM »
On download page http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/downloads.html current version numbers are not displayed. To learn which is the latest one must go to Forums or Distrowatch.

Also it downloads tinycore-current.iso instead of tinycore-3.8.4.iso so you must rename or rearrange it to know which version it is later.

Please make download page a usable single point of information for downlaod.

Well, you can see the latest version number of the release in the "current release files" folder (if you want to see them), so that makes one click additionally or if you want to check the latest version it is also one click to get from "release notes" to the forum topic with the changelog. I'd also love to have something more "dynamic", but since we want to keep it easy I like the idea of providing only the latest version right away. I don't think new users care for version numbers at all?! ibiblio is also very limited in dynamic web server stuff, so it would be necessary to do it by hand every time...

Currently it's shown on the front page. I'll take a look at the download page.

edit: Please take a look now.

The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.
