Jon,
I have 2 thoughts
1.) I can't believe that SourceForge intends for the snapshot feature to
work that way. So, if we open a bug I think they will fix it. It would be
a very cool feature if it did work.
https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/site-support/6552/
2.) If we were to decide to allow / accept user contributions and actually
want ooRexx users to be able to get those contributions, it would be more
user friendly to have a section on the Files download page for them.
Currently the download page has:
Name Modified
Totals: 10 Items
oorexx < 14 hours ago
ooDialog 2014-01-18
oorexx-docs 2013-12-09
ooSQLite 2013-08-27
oorexxunit 2012-07-25
oorexx-buildutils 2010-08-18
RexxGTK 2009-11-01
OldFiles 2009-07-17
windows-build-tools 2009-02-12
orxutils 2006-09-15
I would suggest adding 1 more section:
user-contributions 2014-04-11
And under that section have sections for individual contributions. I see
several things in the incubator that would be easier for ooRexx users to
access if they could be downloaded from the Files download pages. They
could go under user-contributions:
decimalFormat
keditMacros
mod_oorexx
ooRexxShell
ZabrodskyAAT
