Hi Nik, all!

Again, still in hurry, so: I support all your thoughts ... the German
community also discusses this issue right now.

Perhaps one day there will be a mechanism for interlingual discussions etc.

added my proposal there.

See section "Suggestions of Christopher"

I like this approach and Nik's for the clarity of the default. Most
people just want to 'download LibreOffice', not decide between
arbitrarily different versions. As with other projects, it needs to be
blindingly obvious what the default selection is.

I do like the vertical coloured bar in Marc's mockup, but the choice
of links is confusing. Visually Christoph's suggestion separates the
default choice from the rest, but still permits first and furious
users to get bleeding edge stuff by scrolling a bit.

+1 for Christoph's suggestion

I would second Nik's point about confusion over what the different
categories of user are. There is no point asking a user if they are a
Category X user if they don't know what that is.

I like

This does make it easier to get the right version, but I'd prefer
there to be a simple 'Download LibO!' button for the vast majority of
downloads. Ideally we'd handle upgrading to later versions inside the
application ('get me the latest and greatest even if it's not so
stable').
