So we have a gitorious which doesn't allow you to download many 
individual files (works for some, not for others - size is an issue) and 
a wiki which doesn't work with many fileformats and the larger files.

In short, still no good place to put our files :(

That webdav plugin for git I heard about seems more and more 
interesting, at leat, webdav works these days in nautilus too, right? So 
Dolphin and Nautilus would both be able to open a webdav:// link and 
people could see and download our files from there, and if they have a 
login copy-paste or drag and drop files in too?!?

I found some info here: http://www.jedi.be/blog/2009/05/06/8-ways-to-
share-your-git-repository/

But it seems for webdav (search) you need to run your own server so our 
gitorious account won't be helpful. I think SUSE is paying for that 
account, maybe something can be done for us...

I CC'ed darix because he usually knows most about that kind of stuff :D

Darix, do you have any suggestions for the marketing team - how can we 
share our files (presentations up to 20-30 mb, sources & huge png & 
pdf's, you know the drill already) in a way that is:
- easy for us (artists don't use command line tools)
- easy for those who need it (we should either be able to make a link in 
the wiki or have an easy to search/categorized repository via a 
webinterface)

Git and the wiki just don't work for us...
