[GitHub] [airflow] sebbASF opened a new issue #19567: Provider installer pages link to incorrect page
sebbASF opened a new issue #19567:
URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/19567
### Describe the issue with documentation
https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow-providers-airbyte/stable/installing-providers-from-sources.html has the following text:
"The packages are available via the Official Apache Software Foundations Downloads"
This links to http://ws.apache.org/mirrors.cgi which is not a valid download page, and anyway it belongs to the Web Services project.
I don't think the sentence adds any value, so could just be dropped.
### How to solve the problem
As per above, just remove the sentence
### Anything else
Note that this presumably applies to all the provider installation pages.
### Are you willing to submit PR?
- [ ] Yes I am willing to submit a PR!
### Code of Conduct
- [X] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md)

I disagree with that assessment. This has been deliberately added there as a way to promote ASF/Downloads mechanism. It's not only a downoad page but also educational content to teach people about the ASF and the mechanism it uses. The page is ideally placed there - it explains people the purpose, of the page, explains that they also can install Airlfow using PyPI (as convenience packages) and when they are supposed to use officially downloaded sources.
So I think it serves a very good purpose - especially if you empathethically think about users who land at this page who are different - they have no context, knowledge, experience with ASF mechanism. It is - I think an important part of communication - to provide more complex for people who want to explore it. And HTML (H stands for Hyperlink) make such additional context to be available as hypyrlinked pages to the world-wide-web as a foundational element of WWW.
I do not see it as a clear "issue" with the documentaiton - so @sebb If you still want to discuss (and maybe others have a different opinion there) I will convert it to discussion, and if others will express their opinions there and you would like to convince the others - feel free. I am happy to reconsider my opinion if there are others who think similarly.
