Hi, I understand and take responsibility, I know I made mistake and screwed up, and I apologize, I'm sorry. I hope we can move on and restore it, please.

So, I just wanna help and dedicate some of my effort to contribute to <puredata.info>. All I wanted was something like this <http://puredata.info/downloads/purr-data>; which was added a couple of day ago. Notice there are no featured/experimental releases or anything on it, just links to the release. 

Nowadays, this seems like a more reasonable practice to point to a github rather than using puredata.info to host the releases. I can add yet another example of a relevant new Pd project outside <puredata.info> : <https://github.com/danomatika/PdParty>

I don't mean to be destructive, on the contrary, if you feel 'alpha55' should be made available, even though it is not one of the 3 available cyclone versions in deken, I can work on uploading it too... but it has been discussed and agreed that we should not use cyclone to release new versions as today this has been outgrown by other means, aka deken...

So, how to create a new plain and empty cyclone page if restoring the old one ends up to be too troublesome? Mostly because the choice now is to not use it as it was being used... 

cheers

so if you want to fix the "not true and quite misleading information"
you should start by providing correct and unambiguous information,
rather than trying to root out all the information that is not correct
(from your point of view).
be constructive, rather than destructive.

since yesterday, the /downloads/cyclone/ page has been owned by three
people:
- krzysztof
- fred jan
- alex

please: it is *your* responsibility to not fuck up the content of others.
i understand that the website is showing its age, also from a UX point
of view. but that is what we currently have.
i think you should either accept the rigidness of /downloads/ and try to
"go with the flow" of the page, or just plainly ignore it. (something i
find quite similar to Pd, where you are basically lost as soon as you
try to force your well known control-flow mechanics onto that odd
data-flow paradigm).

anyhow, i think i've learned *my* lesson.
