Since there's now a working mirror which doesn't need enhanced-matching this
discussion in my opinion is over.

What will follow now is a discussion with sourceforge so that we reach an
agreement. The reason for them to make mirrors stop displaying the
directory listing, I think, is related to the fact that they want all the
requests to go through their system and because no file can ever be removed
from a mirror. In the latter case, all a project admin can do is hide the
files, but by displaying the directory listing the mirror are not helping.

Am not confusing anything, I just don't forget. I have not seen you do
anything we talked about when you first wanted to join and you failed to
even explain in a human English what you wanted to do. Correct me if I'm
wrong.

Ok, let me rephrase that: there was no support from the ML (whatever that
may mean for every reader of this list.)
