  1. The lack of a loading progress indicator made the page seem broken -- I was staring for a while and it didn't occur to me that I should wait longer -- the fix is to add a spinner (in each column) until the table is ready.

  2. The page doesn't work for people who don't use JavaScript (that's actually me in my default browser configuration) -- we're a tiny minority, so don't feel obligated to cater to us -- a simple improvement would be to have a that shows Sorry, these columns require JavaScript. Note that the index page has a block like this:

  1. You might consider changing the formatting of the line below the gray header rows and the "No Releases" cells. It isn't obvious to me what they are -- thinking about it for a while, I'm guessing that that first row is a description of the column category -- it clearly isn't a thing I can download, but since it's left aligned and kinda in the same font as the things below it... -- I'd be inclined to horizontally center No Releases to make it even more distinguished from the rows that would otherwise appear in its place.

  2. There should be some text above the four tabs that explains what this page is -- I understand the url won't be /foo.html eventually, but you can't rely on people seeing page titles as they're probably in tiny tabs. I'd suggest both a header and a paragraph...
