People still host things on sourceforge? Most user hostile UI ever.

They also do package/binary hosting as well. There are whispers in the grapevine that github may do this soon too, which would be fantastic.

You can upload binaries to releases on GitHub: https://github.com/Atarity/Lightpack/releases/tag/5.10.4

The reason sourceforge is preferred by some people for binary hosting is that you get download stats. People want to know their impact. I think GitHub would really drive sourceforge out of business if they started offering this.
