 Replying to [comment:39 SergeyBiryukov]:
 > How does that help if that page is no longer included in the home page
 content and isn't linked to from anywhere? The download button should be
 in the header, same as on the main site, not at the bottom.

 It's linked to from the "Get WordPress" button below the fold.
 Let me find out how much magic is involved with the w.org header download
 button and see if we can duplicate that.

 > Another issue I see is that some headings are too narrow for translated
 strings. See [attachment:2861-headings.png] — the first heading clashes
 with "News From Our Blog", the second one wraps to a new line.

 How would you suggest to fix it?

 > The new forums theme [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2017/03/02
 /bringing-the-new-support-theme-to-rosetta-sites/ used the opt-in approach
 initially] and was only activated for all locales after all reported
 issues were fixed. Why was a different approach taken here?

 Largely because I anticipated fixing any issues right away and not letting
 them become a problem. For now, the theme also doesn't get activated until
 it's 100% translated. But I'm happy to hold off switching other sites over
 if that makes you feel more comfortable
