 Our actual download pages are still remanends from older methods of
 shipping Fedora. We had 6 or 7 CDs, spins and some netinstall CDs, but now
 the arches and formats are much more and we are creating confusion. This
 leads to misunderstandings and we are also not able to promote all the
 arches the right way.

 Actually we have 4 download pages on fp.o:
 * get-fedora
 * get-fedora-options
 * get-fedora-all
 * get-prerelease

 and we have also http://spins.fedoraproject.org

 My thought would be to:
 * Drop the get-fedora-all page completely
 * Avoid any kind of duplicates, i.e. some spins (the major ones) are
 available on 2 or 3 pages. All spins should reside on spins.fp.o!
 * Use the get-fedora page to promote all the shipping methods

 The clearest method to do so IMHO would be to drop also the right random
 banners we have on the sidebar (Desktop, 2nd-arches, Cloud, Spins) and to
 put them into the get-fedora page.\\
 They should link to the tabs in get-fedora-options or to our spins page
 and give users a clear idea of what is available.\\
 Same for get-pre-release: it would be easy to promote on the get-fedora
 page, and we could also advertise it better on our main page.

 If I can find some time after F19 GA I could give it a try, but if you
 have concerns or ideas please let me know and comment.
