Wayne,
I've just had a look at [2] and noticed that when switching to the
Plan tab the contents isn't restricted to the box.
In Thunderbird it exceeds the left and bottom margin and in IE it
flows beyond the bottom line.

With the new Project Management Infrastructure [1], we have a
first-class concept of releases that capture a lot of information.
I'd like to add a means of specifying some number of update sites
and other downloads. Is that enough? i.e. is it enough to just
allow a committer to associate a couple of links (with optional
annotation) to the release record?
e.g. Here's what the 4.2 release looks like for BIRT: [2]. I'm
hoping that the convenience of being able to specify release
information in this way will encourage projects to actually
specify release information. If this works, then we'll be able to
consistently display this information for all projects.
There is an ongoing discussion regarding standard download pages
[3]. Anything to add to this discussion?

IMHO, most Modeling projects share the quite good modeling

categorisation, ordering and archiving with extra surrounding

from have poor to non-existent downloads pages. Projects that
have 'better' modeling pages for users provide what again IMHO
are very poor inconsistent pages for Eclipse committers, and I
suspect committers are the main consumers of download pages. It
would be good to have a common Foundation infrastructure that
automatically presented downloads and update pages; provided
projects follow the naming practices that are already shared
across many projects.
c.f. Miles Parker's plea for any standard updates naming policy.
