The proposal was attempting to come up with a method to automatically 
link to a package and description file from the download webpage. I have 
no problem
targeting http://openfabrics.org/downloads as long as we come up with a 
way for the webpage to correlate a description with a package without 
hand coding the links everytime. We need to come up with a method for 
automatic links to keep our download webpage updated and complete.

What if we add a directory for each project under downloads and provide 
a README for a description? Other suggestions?
