I’d also make the "Development" link go to a summary page of ALL the
development type information. Do make sure to put a link-able TOC at the top
of that page! Why? We users do click on these, but with just a link we have
no idea what a ‘Gitea’ is and hence we’re not real likely to ever even try to
help with it.

Disagree. Headers, and this is arguable in UIX land, should link to a summary
page for each of the items in the menu.
> "Get Trinity" has the same destination as "Releases".
"Get Trinity" is better UIX, drop "Releases" if you have too.
> "Support" has the same destination as "Contact".
You want both links and while going to the same place is fine, "Support"
really should go to a summary page that lists the email lists, where to file
code bug reports, where to submit website bug reports, ...

If it’s not already there, a TLM of “How you can help” linking to a summary
page of all the ways anyone (dev or user) can help TDE is really desirable.
There (should!) be too many items under this, so do not have any sub-menus.
Hmm, this like the "Development" link could go the a wiki page, so that it can
be maintained easier. (Plus the wiki already has link-able TOCs)
