[1.35.0] Host for release snapshots?
If we are going to generate release snapshots nightly, we need a site to host them. Is Sourceforge a possibility? I seem to recall the Sourceforge release mechanism isn't particularly friendly to nightly snapshots. Ideas? --Beman

You don't need to use them -- you can put an archive on webserver. That's how Boost.Build nightly snapshots work. I would have also hoped you have access to boost.org webserver, so you can upload the package somewhere. - Volodya

Martin Wille has volunteered to set this up:
If you only need a place to put the tar/zip/whatever packages on then the site we already use for uploading the test results could be used.
There's a couple of GB space on that box and it has 100Mbit connectivity. If we run of space then more space can be added.
If you're interested then I'll setup access for you. (I'd like to separate the RC-snapshot area from the test area. The snapshots are more exposed to the world and I'd prefer to restrict write access in order to prevent abuse.)
Thanks Martin! --Beman
