Here's an idea. Perhaps the domain could be a site that hosts the DLLs
etc. needed to run dynamically-linked builds of Allegro programs. It
would be nice to have a place where you could download alleg42.dll for
4.2.1 (and alleg40.dll for 4.0.3 if you want to run older programs). In
fact, if someone is writing a script for an installer that installs a
dynamically-linked app, if it detects that Allegro is not installed on
the system (or an older version is installed), it could download the DLL
from a URL that always stays the same. Of course, if the apps were
statically linked, this hassle will be avoided, but sometimes, I still
come accross dynamically linked apps built with Allegro 4.0.x.
Yes, an alternative "gateway" site is an option, however, someone with
better web design skills than me would have to design it :).
