Having run short of space on the download server, our archive of builds for devices which are no longer supported is currently being held on the build server, which means they are not generally accessible. We need to find a solution which allows them to be accessed by anyone at any time , without asking us.
Why not put old files on web.archive.org ? I could support the old archive using a torrent
There is a command line tool that can be used. We could tar/zip/whatever all the files for the last build for a device, and upload with suitable metadata. Then leave a link to the uploaded item in the archive directory on the download server. And suggest that people make a donation to the Internet Archive if they want to download and archived build.
