Bug Description

The download page, for instance: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/368/builds/133225/downloads Currently only links to the MD5SUMS for the ISO files, I think that it should also link to the SHA256SUMS so that it is easier for one to get them straight from that page rather than having to navigate to them by oneself. SHA256SUMS are preferable over MD5SUMS for security reasons.

Will wait for someone higher up to confirm if this should be changed or not - however I've added the ability to put a SHA256 Download link in for the admin panel (http://i.imgur.com/bI7pHat.png) in lp:~whosdaz/ubuntu-qa-website/lp1633124

However, just because this option is in the menu doesn't mean that it'll be added immediately to each project - as far as I'm aware they'll have to be added manually for each project.

MD5SUMS are not produced anymore and replaced by SHA256SUMS. The tracker has been updated accordingly. However there is still a minor issue with the labels of the links. Even if the links point to the sha256sums, the label is still md5sums. This requires an update of the website and the database.
