Hi all,

I'm currently overhauling some code for a Cactus project, and thought  
it'd be a good idea to update my install with the newest ET release.   
Here are a few things I've noticed while looking for the newest release:

1) The "releases" button/page contains a lot of information on the  
latest release (Curie), but no actual link to either the component  
list itself or a page detailing download and installation directions.   
This seems like an oversight that would be easy to correct.

2) The "documentation" header does not contain a link to Cactus  
tutorials.  Perhaps there could be a "Quickstart" label or a "Getting  
Started" label, which then loads a page that gives a choice between  
the beginner/advanced tutorials?  A new user might click on the "User  
Guide" from the main menu thinking that's all there is to get started  
with and feel overwhelmed, when all s/he might want is to just get  
their hands dirty with an example or two.

Anyways, hope this is useful criticism, just saw some things that I  
thought could be cleared up a bit :)
