Hi,

Is https://code.google.com/p/protobuf/wiki/Download?tm=2 still the
canonical location to download protobuf tarball releases?  There is a
tarball on the GitHub "Releases" page:

    https://github.com/protobuf-c/protobuf-c/releases

But this is just a tarball copy of the git repository content.  E.g., it
doesn't contain the gtest content which, uhh, is apparently fetched over
HTTP (not HTTPS) from autogen.sh, ick.

I note that you can actually upload release tarballs to GitHub for a
particular tag that can include 'extra' content not tracked in git
(e.g., autotools stuff) by clicking the "Edit" button next to the
release as a project administrator.  That's what I do for the protobuf-c
releases:

    https://github.com/protobuf-c/protobuf-c/releases

(The green buttons are the real tarballs, the grey buttons are the
repository snapshots synthesized by GitHub.)
