1: sourceforge: I attempted this at one point in time. They said yes,
and then I never heard back from them. Many many emails later I gave
up.
2. Debian. where would we put it? The QT1/KDE1 stuff would not be
allowed in the first place due to the licensing issues. It *can't*
go into the potato distribution. No place else allows rsync and ftp
let alone allowing anyone but myself access to it.
3. KDE. My experience with getting stuff put on the kde.org ftp servers
has been a big royal pain in the ass usually taking several weeks to
get things done. Nothing against the KDE ftp guys here, they are
volunteers.
So far there has not been a single volunteer to actually host the master site
that has the ability to do it correctly or who actually follows through. For
this reason we have had the ongoing problems (over a year now) of where do
we put the box next...
I am no longer going to chase after a solution. I will continue to work on
my own solution and if I get one great, if not oh well.
