Remove download links #5

Closed remram44 closed 4 years ago

remram44 commented 8 years ago

This is not software so there is probably no sense having links to download the repository as a ZIP.

rjleveque commented 8 years ago

Thanks for the suggestion, although I'm not sure I agree -- we hope the repository as a whole might be useful to others (e.g. for the slide decks it contains, or as a starting point for a similar group elsewhere), and we also want to "advertise" the capabilities of GitHub for those coming to the page who might not be familiar with it, so I don't see the harm in keeping these links.

Now that the new escience webpages are live at http://escience.washington.edu/, we'll be reorganizing our various pages so we should think about this further. Other thoughts?

It appears that you re-built the whole website without download links (5583def4) :+1:

Just so you know, you kept the gh-pages branch around although it's completely unused, which is a little confusing :wink:

Thanks for your comment. You're welcome to make a PR to remove that branch.

remram44 commented 4 years ago

PRs can't do that unfortunately :frowning:

Thanks for letting me know!
