I'd like the Latest Releases box to be much simpler, and to be consistent from entry to entry. Currently:

  • the XO-1 and XO-1.5 tags link to two very different things, certainly not to model specific pages,
  • the title links to another quite different thing,
  • firmware is placed between stable and development operating system releases,
  • there are links to the download directories before the links to the release notes or installation guide.

I think the box should guide users to a page that describes the release, and that page would include download pointers. I'd go ahead and edit, but User:Sj and User:Holt are obviously editing as well, so I'm offering to discuss it first. --Quozl 06:32, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
