Re: Why this list refuses small zip / 7z archives ?

I can recommend DropBox (http://www.dropbox.com) for this purpose.  
They offer 2GB of free space and their software (Linux/Mac/Windows)  
seamlessly integrates this storage into your file system: You just  
copy your files to the local Dropbox/Public folder (via command  
line, Explorer, Finder, or whatsoever), from which it is transparently  
synchronized with the server. Right-clicking on an item gives you the  
option to copy the public URL in the clipboard you can then paste  
into the e-mail.


I have been using it for quite a while under OS X without any  
complaints so far. No spamming/advertising, no service dropouts, and  
really easy to use.

Hi Olivier,

A rather simple solution is using one of the file share sites such as
rapidshare.com, hotfile.com, megaupload.com, upload.to, or one of
many others. For small files, the service is free, and they'll  
delete the

files after some time automatically.

Yeah, and that way you don't have to take the time to mess around  
with the
wiki. I'm like you Oliver -- my days are too short to be wikiing  
around just

to distribute a few files.

Sounds very complex to me (I've always found wikis very complex to work 
with, perhaps I'm too old). Especially since the wiki is password protected.


If people want to try Tango-derived icons for LyX, just let me know, I 
attach a screenshot to this email. The screenshot is reduced to 256 
colours, because I could not fit any screen shot in the 60KB requested

Hi Olivier,

A rather simple solution is using one of the file share sites such as
rapidshare.com, hotfile.com, megaupload.com, upload.to, or one of
many others. For small files, the service is free, and they'll delete the
files after some time automatically.


Good idea,

Rapidshare is limited to 10 downloads, and it did not work when I tried 
to download the file (server error). It is at:

http://rapidshare.com/files/338339324/tangolyx.zip.html

Best regards,

Olivier

Yeah, and that way you don't have to take the time to mess around with the 
wiki. I'm like you Oliver -- my days are too short to be wikiing around just 
to distribute a few files.

RE: Why this list refuses small zip / 7z archives ?

Another option might be to use a service such as Windows Live Skydrive
(http://skydrive.live.com).  I've used it to host photos and other files for
a while and I don't really have any complaints.  There are size restrictions
(I think it is 50 MB), but other than that, I've found it a good way for
sharing files with friends and family.
