Well, it would be the PDF that you might be happy to publish - either on a site where people pay to download or on a free site (such as IMSLP, I can publish it there if you wish, as I have an account there). I wouldn't encourage publishing the Denemo source file as, like a Microsoft Word document that could be mis-used for malicious purposes. Whatever you choose, we could put a link to your work on Denemo.org (assuming it gives a good impression of the program's capabilities!) You have some questions still outstanding - about fermata on whole measure rest and merging them from different voices... There is a nice facility for cutting down a large file to a size you can send (in the staff menu, Delete Measures Before/After cursor) if these are still problems.
