Accessing old releases

Hi; there seems to be a structure problem in the fedora download  
website.
.It's easy to get the current release - nicely designed (thanks)
.It's hard, but not impossible, to find out-of-support releases of  
fedora (currently,
	this means up to F10). This requires following the links
		All Download Methods
		See old versions of Fedora
		archive
	from the main download page. I think this needs some fixing
	("See old versions of Fedora" should also be available from the
	"View more Fedora options" page), but it's not to bad.
.There is no link _at all_ that I can find to the supported-but-not- 
current
	releases (i.e. Fedora 11 and 12 at the moment). This is bad, because
	it means that if someone can't run F13 for some reason, they are likely
	to revert to (unsupported) F10. The only way I could find to get F11
	(which I need to check some software back-compatibility) was to
	find the F13 download link, then reconstruct what the F11 link must
	be. Fortunately, the links are very systematic, and it worked. But this
	really isn't the way it should be...

	Thanks and Best Wishes
	Bob McKay
