No, that seems really bad. It now says "As of 2013-04-12, this project
is no longer under active development."

I also notice we've had 49 downloads this week. Which is pretty bad
since it's all of outdated versions.

Perhaps you should change it back to the link, but also try to find
out if there is a way to *delete* the current downloads that are
horribly out of date. Since people are clearly using them.
