Greetings,

If it would be helpful, I would be happy to host the source and  
binaries at <http://OpenOSX.com>. I have "spare" hard disk space and  
bandwidth.

I would have to post a disclaimer that we did not create the binaries  
and are in no way responsible for any issues or support for them.

If you are interested, contact me (off list) and I can create a  
directory and FTP login for the directory...


Cheers,
