The downloads plugin does look like a viable option (especially since it is
being actively developed).  I haven't used it either but I believe Cordiste
has (how do you like it?).

I would use the features of this  plugin on Geeklog.net  but I have found
that I never get emails when I receive a new message.  I believe it is
supposed to send one out.

I did some work on the File Management plugin[1]. That's also the version
that is running on geeklog.net. The upgrade code needs some work - I suspect
that it won't work for upgrades from rather old versions.

Again, this is mainly maintenance work that I only did since we're using it
on geeklog.net. I'm not too happy with the plugin's functionality, actually.
Ironically, it doesn't really offer a lot of file management options,
despite the name.

There's also the Downloads plugin[2] which, as I understand it, can be used
as a drop-in replacement (haven't tried it myself).

That has always been a bit of a showcase install. But I guess we can't
simply disable it now ...

bye, Dirk
