DL 0.13 is now available in regular Fedora channels as well as the EPEL 
repository (for RHEL, CentOS, ScientificLinux users).


On Fedora = 19, you can type:

yum install dl

For users of the EPEL repository:

yum --enablerepo=epel install dl

After installation, have a look at /usr/share/doc/dl-0.13/README.fedora, 
where I included some basic configuration steps required when using the RPM.


Thanks to Russ for his help in getting the package approved, and of 
course to Yuri for a useful piece of software!

 Yes, it's in there now.  It's in the testing repo for Fedora 19, 
 Fedora 20, and EPEL 6 (CentOS 6, RHEL 6, etc.)
 
 It's in the regular (non-testing) repo for EPEL 7 (RHEL 7, CentOS 7), 
 and Fedora 21/rawhide.

Awesome :)

I'm wondering now where I should advertise/announce DL releases.
In the past I relied a lot on freshmeat/freecode. Since now it's
officially gone, the only channel left is either this mailing list or
github.

Somehow I was never able to find anything by searching through github
unless it's already *quite* popular. There's too much noise and
unimplemented/half-not-working stuff. Plus, it's not really useful for
users, as opposed to developers.

What's popular these days to find software, aside from random searches
and the stackexchange network?
