Binary download

[Jason Filby]

Hi all

Do we really need the binary download anymore? The binary is highly
downloaded, but I suspect that those that do download it then proceed
to the iso/livecd/bochs/qemu downloads which are more usable (if they
aren't too frustrated at that point).

Should we remove it? Does anyone object to that?

Cheers
Jason

I think they should probably be renamed to indicate they are just programs,
even though it says that in the description I doubt people read it. But it
is useful to have.

What would be nice is a beefier version of the ISO with all the extra
binaries in it.

Hi Michael

Is it really useful? The binary by itself is not usable since we
require FreeLoader. Devs may find individual exes useful - but those
are generated by CVS - so there's no need to go the binary.
