Download page mentioned in documentation

Hi,

I'm new to FICO Xpress and applied for the community edition. I got the mail notifying me about where to find the documentation and some introduction to FICO Xpress. However I can't seem to find the download page to actually get the solver (or I get redirected to the application form). I would like to use FICO Xpress in Pyomo.

Thank you in advance

    For Pyomo, we recommend that you use the "xpress_direct" solver interface. You will need to install the Xpress Python package using Pip:

    pip install xpress

    And then set up your Pyomo solver like this:

    solver = SolverFactory('xpress_direct')

    If you are using Anaconda, the Xpress package is also available on the fico-xpress channel:

    conda install -c fico-xpress xpress
