I’ve had problems with the Jakarta website for as long as I can remember. It’s hard to navigate and it’s hard to find documentation. Here are a few of the problems with just the download part:

• The only download page is a big list of all of the Jakarta projects
• The individual projects (like JK2 connector) just link to that single download page, without even scrolling me down to the project I clicked from.
• The projects are mostly in alphabetical order, but “JK2″ project is under “T” for Tomcat
• Each download link brings me to a list of all the filenames, and each file has a corresponding <file>.asc file for no obvious reason
• The Description for all of the files, even the .asc files, is “Jakarta project.”

I think it’s been this way for way too long, considering how easily it could be improved.
