I'd like to suggest a cleanup of our "Get Gentoo" page. It is one of the
more important pages, because every new user has to visit it.

My main goal was to make the most important links extremely easy to
find, so I've moved the download links to the beginning of the page.

You can see the suggested page rendering here:

http://dev.gentoo.org/~phajdan.jr/where.xml

For reference, the current version:

http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/where.xml

To view the XML source of my modifications, see
<http://dev.gentoo.org/~phajdan.jr/where.xml?passthru=1>. The block I
have moved is not modified at all, so the diff should be quite clean.

What do you think?

I already did clean it up when I punted the last of the 2008.0 references from it, and some other sundry fixes.

By shifting stuff around, you've put all the explanations of "what all these weirdly named things are" to the end, which means visitors may be more confused. I'm not sure this was the best idea, but lemme think about it awhile longer.

Also, please don't EVER set reply-to to "gentoo-project" when the topic is actually something related to distribution development, in this case, the landing page.
