The suggestion was to have a single Download button, leading to a *page* of suitably described links, allowing the user to choose whether they only wanted the basics (a choice of compiler/interpreter + cabal), or the whole Platform, or something else. It would be the ideal place to explain what cabal is and how to use hackage to get more libraries than are contained in the platform. It would perhaps reduce the clutter on the front page that some people complained of (although I don't personally think it cluttered).
Thank you. That was exactly what I meant. Now we need to make a prototype of that page.
