Ahhh, oops, I'd forgotten about that. That reminds me I tried to
upload a file and it went wrong for some reason (quite probably my own
fault I suspect), and I never followed it up to try again. OOPS!

Hhhrrrrmmmnnn-ummmmm, I'd rather keep things on my own site for
updating reasons. It's a mighty arduous task updating the exe's and
source downloads for me as it is - I've even been thinking about
writing a tool to package everything up in just the way I want it.

For instance I've got to detach the source projects from my source
control software before uploading, making sure they all contain the
correct files if I've added/deleted anything.

So I'm thinking of ways of making this whole job easier for me as it
consumes waayyy too much time, and so I do it less frequently than I
might otherwise.

Hence I'd rather not have to update two locations, or perhaps just
edit one 'foreign' site. I daresay I could link from my site to the
central one...

I also like how PHP-Nuke keeps track of a download counter for each
available downloadable.
