They will always be up to date.

I think many/most "normal" people, which by definition excludes us, are relatively confused when seeing an FTP directory listing with links. It is certainly preferred by us, but can cause issues with folks that are used to being spoon-fed with pretty webpages, etc.

Also, on occaision (when updates are coming out, being pulled back, etc.) this page is literally empty of links, something that would be a big issue for consumers, but obvious in meaning to us.

Just an opinion.
