How many average Tor users would look for newest stable releases on the
Tor Browser distribution site?
Signatures?
I have no idea what the upshot is, except maybe there's miscommunication
or timing isn't coordinated (common in every organization)?
I was just curious that the announcement was in the weekly news, the
distribution site https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/ is
updated, but the main download site for all Tor projects isn't.
