I'd refer to the big gimper, schumaml to find out what the best course of action might be here? Not sure who best to obtain a cert through for our use. If we do get one, then it would make more sense to simply use it across the entire site when we implement. > > 2/ Also still in the download page, could the download links for OS > which have any (Windows and OSX) be made into colorful buttons?

Now that the porting is mostly done, I can start focusing on styling elements of the page like the download links (they are cute buttons on the current WGO, I'll aim for something in a similar vein for SGO. > > 3/ If the exact Linux distribution (Fedora rightfully detected, for > instance in my case) has been detected, it would be good to have the > install information for this distrib at the top (and maybe even the > others hidden, unless clicking a "see all Linux distribution" link). > I think this is a good idea as well, and will look into expanding the detection/show logic to capture more specific instances like this. > > 4/ As sad as it is (for someone like me whose first distribution was > Mandrake, later known as Mandriva), the Mandriva company has closed > this year.
