1) Upload all contributed packages to the sourceforge download page. In case this is your favorite, there's a catch, though: I'd like to delegate most of the work to another person. Making file-releases is a cumbersome process, already, and I don't want it to take up yet more of my time. Volunteers?

1b) Upload to a regular directory on an HTTP-server (like http://rkward.sf.net/temp/). Possibly slightly easier to handle, but still I'd like to delegate that task.

2) Have most packages hosted somewhere else, and simply keep a list of links to those packages. Somewhat similar to http://rkward.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?title=Binaries_and_Build_Scripts (or http://apps.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/rkward/index.php?title=Binaries_and_Build_Scripts in the new wiki). However, we'd probably re-organize this page a bit, and try to make it more prominent (by advertising it as the primary download page).

3) Something else?

What do you - and especially the packagers - think?

I'm inclined towards no. 2 with help of 1b for those who don't have/trust a third-party host/repository. I think that the "Binaries and Build Scripts" page has been a little bit "hidden" from the users, but has a lot of potencial. Perhaps every packager can put things in order within "his/her" section. Then we can explicitly assign an official package maintainer for each distro and announce it in the wiki - so we can distribute tasks. This way all other contributors must address to him/her before submitting any packages.

For example, in Slackware-based distros, the decision would lay between slackpackages or slackbuilds, but that's another discussion.

And that's my humble opinion :-b
