Entering just the bare directory URL:
http://cloud.fedoraproject.org/
presently does a redirect into:
http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora#clouds
May I recommend moving this archive down a level, and adding
an intermediate directory and listing with
- each file available,
- checksum (md5, shaN, whatever),
- stock userid present having sudo rights
- passwd for that stock userid
- a date / timestamp
and of course
- additional bikeshed material to taste
While having an 'outlink to the the brand', as the present
redirect does is a fine idea, as is 'skinning', it seems
inappropriate when one simply wants to peruse possible images
to retrieve
As to content to present, to some degree, you are on the same
path as Richard W.M. Jones more mature solution to such
issues, as specified at:
