OK, I cleaned up that page.

- On top are the most important version-specific docs for the currently supported versions, i.e. 2.5 and 2.1 Quick Start Guides and LangRef Updates.

- After that, the Command Line Utilities manuals, followed by other user manuals, reference material and the Firebird licenses.

- Then come the manuals on no longer supported versions, the IB6 manuals, and finally the manuals for Firebird docwriters.

I'm sure we can still do better, by integrating some of the docs pages and using only one line per document (with the available language links listed like we used to, e.g. "en fr de nl"), which saves a lot of vertical scrolling, but that's for another day.
