[libvirt] Move "Bindings" page under "Downloads" heading?

Hi us, It just clicked for me, that when people want to download (or even find) our language bindings, they have to find them through our Documentation section pages. Would it make more sense to have our language bindings listed under Downloads? + Justin

Or at a minimum, a link under our downloads page that takes them to where they need to be in the documentation section. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org

Agreed, binding issues are more a topic for developpers, basically users should ignore that virt-manager use python bindings (it should be hidden behind packaging management). But a link on the download page really makes sense too for people assembling things by hand :-) Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ daniel@veillard.com | Rpmfind RPM search engine http://rpmfind.net/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

Interesting side effect. When a person clicks on the "Language bindings" entry now, both of the Downloads and Documentation entries are expanded and highlighted. Doesn't look unworkably bad, but we should probably adjust the javascript at some point. :)

This isn't done with javascript, it is auto-generated HTML at build time, based on the sitemap. IMHO the page should only be located in one place on the site, so if we want it under downloads, then remove it from documentation. Regards, Daniel
