Hmm, aren't those redundant with the Postgres Plus link on the upper
page?
I tend to find this a bit misleading: both the front page and the
linked-to pages give the impression that you are being pointed to
community-supplied binaries. With all due respect to Dave, I agree
that having to fork over identifying information to EDB is not
something I want people to think the community is pushing.
