    Hi there,

    Last couple of weeks I've noticed that developers/users/all are a bit reluctant to submit new downloads. In some cases it pops up in the forum or as news item, but it happens rather frequently that a new release or an update is overseen.

    Krashan pointed this out in the Atari 800 emulator news thread:

    I really wonder why authors of MorphOS software do not submit it to MorphZone downloads. Look at OS4 Depot on the red side - every single thing is submitted there. But our authors are too lazy, or submit form is too difficult? I think one centralized resource is needed strongly.

    If there was simple FTP interface which accepts both .lha and .readme and automatically uploads everything to the Aminet...


    So here we go: a thread to discuss the reasons why there is a reluctancy to report/submit downloads and what can we do about it?

    *bump*

    Ok, if no-one else will reply this time, I take it that there is nothing wrong with the current way of submitting downloads/amount of submitted downloads :-D

    I think al the developers need to post them him and then make a news post. Its nice having everything in one place if you need it. As I see it now, its not hard to use the current system.
