If we're playing that game, I'd rather see:

Latest Releases
8.0.1 <source> <binaries>
7.4.7 <source> <binaries>
7.3.9 <source> <binaries>

At least that applies to everyone. FWIW, Tony's complaint came before
those links were there however, so at the time it would have been the
Download/Downloads links that I commented on.

Regards, Dave.

You're planning to link binaries to
http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.0.1/ ?  That seems like a good
scheme.

Why not add quick links to the latest source/binaries in the right-hand
box on http://www.postgresql.org/download/ instead?

I didn't link the "Latest Releases" to anything when I added it, as the
download page should serve this purpose.
