Maybe we can call it a "project" and put it on sourceforge.
Whilst I don't have a problem with this - this is going to have the same issues for non devlopers. What windows people need is a nice clean release from a clear source. They are not used to thinking about source versions etc.
BTW I am not denigrating Windows users - I am just being realistic about what they are used to. PD is a tool for making music - I am lucky 'cos I am a programmer but for most people all the programing stuff is a little bit off putting. I think PD is a great program and as many people as possible should have access to it.

You are right. I'm sometimes too deep into it, so that i forget about using pd for making music for days....
Yet (as you probably know), sourceforge does not merely provide source code access. You can as well design a web site for that stuff, put readily compiled binaries onto it etc.
If one doesn't need these maintainance features WIKI is just as good (and much easier to handle), of course!
