I agree!  I'll take a stab at some instructions (please correct me if I get
something wrong).

I believe this list was provided with its associated md5 hashes to check
the integrity.  I'm not sure what the reason for the list is other than to
have it visible on the site for others to use if needed (or as a reference)?

I'm not quite sure what's involved with listing/approving a particular
build on the "official" downloads page.  I'll be happy to include any
build, of course, but at the direction of the entire team.  So - is there
any reason not to include Partha's builds?  (I actually use his builds as
well on my windows machines occasionally).
