RE: Link the zips! (was: Re: Conversion of MS CSS 2.1 tests to reftests)

Adding Bert to the to line in case his rules push this mail out of sight.

Bert, I think it is a really good idea to link to the ZIP file for each test suite from the Summary page for that test suite.

For example, from the 20110323 test suite summary page [1] there should be a link below the 'XHTML 1.1 for Printers' link that points to the ZIP file [2].

What do you think?

[2]: http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/latest.zip

Not long before Boris wrote this, I found and downloaded the zip version myself and didn't find it that difficult to find, but just now I tried to find it again and didn't see it linked anywhere on the w3.org pages; the address above is 404 now, and while URL hacking gives me .zip files, there is no documentation on them, so I couldn't really be sure if they correspond to official releases (and I probably would have given up lo- cating them if I would have had trouble recalling Boris running into this problem and posting about it here). The archives should be promi- nently linked from http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/latest/ and other overview pages like it.
