Xbx shows up every once in a while, seems to be a young kid who doesn’t read English terribly well or know how mailing lists work and isn’t subscribed so doesn’t get list replies.
The couple I’ve picked apart didn’t seem malicious, just not actually necessary or particularly useful. But I’d hate to discourage someone who’s trying to learn. Of course, that could be a double-bluff of some kind just waiting for us to trust him. Who knows.

I don't know what PySimpleBuild is but MariaDB has been released under a GPL license so there should NOT be a reason not to post your "zip's" contents onto a github, gitlab or any other third party or your own git instance. Lets not even mention the security risks of downloading something from any (even trusted) email due to any and all email protocols having weaker security than a tamagotchi.
