Hans-Christoph,
Very cool. The Mac externals should be ready to go, too, right? I've been playing around with a build system for Thomas Grill's flext externals, too.
With these file releases, do people think that pd on MacOSX is "usable" enough to make a limited announcement to, say, osxaudio.com? (With disclaimers that it's still mostly a command-line tool, not for the faint-of-heart, etc.)
If we point people to that page, what can we do to encourage people to join pd-list for support?

I have started putting releases in the files section of the SourceForge site, you can check it out here:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=55736
So now I want to download links on the main site, http://pure-data.sf.net. Anyone have an objections?

Yes, you are right, until now the page was thought for developers only, we have to make it more user oriented, which includes pointers to the list, more user oriented introduction, not too much, but to guide them how to download the version they want.

First off, Guenter did a lot of work on the main site, and I added a download page. This should help getting the newbies on board. I added a Mailing Lists page, so hopefully people will figure out where to go for help.
I'd say the MacOS X packages are ready for an intro announcement. I've been spreading the word around my university, and a bunch of people have installed it without asking me for any help, so I'd say that's a good beta test.
So that we are starting to make releases, we should probably start tagging releases, like 0.1, etc.
