Re: [phoenix-dev] Ganymede action for the home page

[Ian Bull <irbull@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Ah... I see... I assumed it would go to the Ganymede landing page.  
(which of course would have information about Ganymede before the 
release date, and Ganymede afterwards).  But I guess 
downloads.eclipse.org is the page.

Actually, what if we removed the button until Ganymede was live.  We 
still have the Download Eclipse button below for getting Europa.

Cheers,
ian
