OK
well then i wont upload it...
its a little bit contradicting, since Frank said..
sourceforege is not for binaries...anyway, i am still waiting for a
response from Hans-Christian, maybe then its solved.
Otherwise i'll send people interested my gmx-mediacenter link
that's the way it is
Thanks anyway for your detailed answer
webdavs.....that i didnt try
Bye

I said, CVS is not for binaries. The release system on Sourceforge is for binaries, but it's not really used by our group.

It is actually used quite heavily, as you can see by the download
numbers (>15,000 for Pd-0.40.1 and >25,000 for Pd-0.38.4-extended).

just to make things clear (and to reiterate myself): it is really for the benefit of all visitors of puredata.info to not upload such huge files: the site will get even slower than it is now.
the only other reason to not upload stuff is, that the disk might get full and we have to find a new one... (the machine is not of the super hot-swappable and easily-extendible-without-downtime type)

it is not a contradiction, though it might be unclear:
sourceforge offers several services. one of them (used by the pd-community) is hosting of code-repositories (CVS/SVN). it is common sense, that such a repository is for source-code _only_ (this is: do not put installers, binaries in a repository; there have been fights whether it is arguable to put _generated_ code into a repository, since it is strictly spoken no "source" code). http://pure-data.cvs.sourceforge.net/pure-data/
another service by sourceforge is the hosting of downloads. whenever a project makes a release or sub-release (however small it is), it can upload the release files to a special webspace (and do some paperwork). releases are usually a set of archives, and can be source (usually compressed), binaries, installers,... sourceforge will eventually distribute your release files on a number of mirror servers all over the world, adding redundancy and and better download speed. http://sf.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=55736
so: frank said, that you should not put your binary into the sourceforge CVS. i said, that you should put your binary into the sourceforge release system.

that's the way it is

finally: i had no time yesterday when i answered your email, so probably i missed that one: there are possibilities to put binary releases (of large files) onto puredata.info, but please don't do it by yourself for now.
always contact the admin (that is me ;-)) and we'll surely find a hand-tailored solution to the problem.
