[Coin-tlc] down load page (Re: [Project-managers] move to subversion)

Agreed.  Right now if you're looking for IPOPT code and go to the main 
download page(http://www.coin-or.org/download.html) -- you're left hanging 
dry. 

Just getting the download page to point to to the existing established 
projects in svn would be a great step forward.   JP and  I ran into this 
when working with Bjarni. 

thanks for all the work herding us cats, 
Robin

In the TODO page I mentioned that each project should include download
instructions (and gave an example). On the main download page we should 
direct
people to the main projects page to find those projects that are managed 
by
svn.

What should also happen is that http://projects.coin-or.org (the main 
projects
page, that for now only lists a couple of projects) should be modified and
have basic info on how to use the trac pages and svn, have a pointer to 
the
build process that will apply to many of the projects, etc. If noone else
volunteers to do this I'll do it in June. It's got to be done.
