The lack of the latest files on the linuxaudio site isn't something I
can fix. My understanding is that the situation used to be that
lilypond.org used to run a cron job that scp'ed the binaries to
linuxaudio. However, this stopped working when a) Han-Wen changed the
hosting of lilypond.org or b) there was a problem with linuxaudio and
it had to be rebuilt.
I assume it was the latter. Somewhere I read a blog post about their
server being hacked and completely rebuilt in a new infrastructure.
Obviously our uploads don't work anymore since then.
I assume that there is not the correct certificate on the new
lilypond.org system.
The cron job was set up by Jan, and the login I use has no access to it.
The simplest solution might be to change to simply pointing all
downloads to the lilypond.org server. I think we didn't do this in
the past to lower the load on the server, but the new infrastructure
might not see that as a problem.
Well, at least currently it's the problem that the links point to a 404
error page.
a) Who knows whether it is acceptable to permanently host the binaries
on lilypond.org (somehow I doubt that is an option)?
b) Who knows how much work it will be to get the hosting on
linuxaudio.org to be working again?
If either a) is the way to go or b) is suspect of taking more time (than
say, a few days) we should temporarily update the links on the download
page.

Available from http://lilypond.org/downloads/binaries/ currently.
Any information on how long this situation will last? I think we
should consider updating the website, even if it's temporary.
