WRT to the latest release version. How about we remove that entirely?

Thank you [[User:Adweisbe|Adweisbe]] for starting this discussion.
I think it's certainly fair and accurate to acknowledge different flavors of Presto such as PrestoDB and PrestoSQL. I agree that it is a fact that PrestoDB, originally at github.com/facebook/presto and later moved to github.com/prestodb/presto, was the original repository for the project. This is not what I was disputing and happy to acknowledge. I was disputing what I described in the other section about someone intentionally and repeatedly deleting factual content around the creators of Presto and existence of the Presto Software Foundation. I want to make the distinction clear.
It was not my intention to make PrestoDB look like it is not around anymore and I don't feel that I did it in the way being interpreted. I added information and did not replace. I started participating in the community around fall 2014, and I helped originally create this article in 2015, and contribute over the years. When the PSF was formed and I reformatted the page with the top right box, it seemed obvious to me to point the latest software version to the PrestoSQL. From my interactions and discussions with Facebook Inc. leadership, my understanding was that there was no intention for their employees to continue to participate in the community around Presto. Therefore I did not think much of it when I added the version download and website link on the top right to point to PrestoSQL. Again, this was new information I added and did not replace. Further, I did not remove the link Facebook's community page in the External Links section. However, either I was misinformed or decisions at Facebook Inc. changed, because it is clear that employees intend to participate in a community. The failure was to not appropriately update the page to have both once I became informed of the community intention. I think we can easily reconcile this per your suggestions.
I am glad to have this discussion and happy to acknowledge the different Presto variations where appropriate. And refer to them appropriately. I am not and never have doubted the objective truth. I only ask that others respect the same with regards to additional flavors of Presto (i.e. PrestoSQL).
Per your suggestions:
> WRT to the Website link at the top right. How about we link to both?
I agree. As an alternative, maybe we keep both in external links rather than on the top right. I think it may be confusing and also look aesthetically odd IMO.
> WRT to the latest release version. How about we remove that entirely?
I agree.
