The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.Now we have links to downloads of projects on project pages on l.d.o, these pages are cross-linked from d.o. This is not entirely helpful and we should replace/augment l.d.o/download with a wizard which asks for your project name and language and directs you to the right files. Looks like people do not find the right download links in practice.
l10n_packager has all the data of the files we generated, file names, sizes, dates, etc. so we can even do a little browser for those files.

gábor hojtsyHere is an initial version that on light local testing works fine even if a bit slow...

gábor hojtsyI kept working on this all day committing stuff to CVS and not posting here :) Some changes I put in:
- direct download links on project and language pages as well as the translation front page for downloads; this is styled as nice and green on d.o
- make the contributors and stats blocks available on the downloads page
- prefill the contributors block with the project name people download
- make the download tables cached for a day
- style the download project picker on one line
- organize downloads in branches vs. major versions
- use release check time as well, so we have a more accurate picture of how up to date a file is
- highlight the latest release in each branch for download
Here is a diff that includes the above and was all already committed.

droplet commented@Gábor,
"cached for a day"
Is it repackage when more than 24 hours or say on a fixed time.

gábor hojtsyCaches are regenerated on demand. They are expired anytime someone views the download page, and regenerated when someone requests the module in question. See the code.
