[jira] [Updated] (CASSANDRA-3816) Improve visibility of Cassandra packages

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3816?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jonathan Ellis updated CASSANDRA-3816:
--------------------------------------

    Attachment: 3816.txt

This patch re-organizes the downloads page into five sections:

# Cassandra Server: the binary tarball and Debian package
# 3rd party distros: links DataStax community, where you can get RPMs and a Windows installer
# CQL drivers: basically unchanged, but links CQL.html now (and promoted from h3 to h2)
# Previous and Archived Cassandra Server Releases
# Source: source tarballs, git instructions, and the Jenkins nightly builds

I couldn't come up with a way to salvage the green box.  I removed it entirely (we still have the Download "tab" link at the top).

> The preferred way to install (and upgrade) Cassandra is through Debian and RPM packages, but the current "Take Action" download box on the front page only links the binary tarball.  Even clicking through to "other options" (http://cassandra.apache.org/download/) doesn't mention anything but tarballs for the core server.
