Hi guys,
After discussing with Richard, I added download buttons to the homepage
of Emacs (see the attached screenshot).
They take a bit of vertical space, but I hope it will make it much
easier for users to get to the correct download section for their OS.
When clicking a download button, the user gets redirected to the
appropriate download section of download.html, which explains why
non-free systems are bad and why Emacs has support for them.
I hope you like the change :-)
Cheers,
Nico

Hi Nico,
i like the buttons, good idea!
In my system, the buttons for Windows and MacOS show the headings
'Windows' and 'OS X' respectively; but the button for GNU/Linux
doesn't show the heading: the first line shown is
'Most GNU/Linux distributions provide ...'
I've checked them with iceweasel 45.6.0 in Debian Strech.

It's nice to have download buttons, but if I click on the Windows download
button, the page scrolls to the download section which will hide the
information about why those systems are bad. I had to manually scroll up to
find it, and I doubt many people will do that.
Regards,
Elias
