Hey, I recently discovered https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/ which is a nice list of all the files available - but I think I discovered it from a Google search! Any way a link out to it could be added to https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads?

Well, anyone not sufficiently baffled by the normal download page would certainly be intimidated by the anonymous list, so not bother trying the software, which reduces our support workload! :twisted:

I want the list to be able to try different versions where necessary (rollback etc).

Also I do pretty much everything on my systems unattended thru scripts or tools like packer and I like to be able to download from a place with structure.

Many open-source projects point to file lists like this for similar reasons.
