About the LyX FTP-sites

There are two main FTP-sites related to LyX.

ftp.lyx.org — For downloading LyX releases etc, see ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx
- ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin — Pre-compiled LyX binaries for different operating systems.
- ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib — Packages that are useful in conjunction with LyX. These packages were contributed by the LyX users and provided "as is".
- ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable — Source code for the different releases of LyX.
- ftp.lyx.org/incoming — Files can be uploaded (but not downloaded) to this directory for placement on the ftp-server.
ftp.devel.lyx.org
- ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/lyx — Snapshots (source and binary) of development versions can be found here.
- ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/incoming — Files can be uploaded (but not downloaded) to this directory for placement on the ftp-server.

3. Uploading files to the FTP-sites

Not even developers do direct uploads to ftp.lyx.org, only a very small set of people have access to that server.

In order to upload files to any of the FTP-sites, please upload the files to ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/incoming. Then, via the developers' list (lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org), contact either Jean-Marc or Lars and ask them to move the files to their proper location.

Please note that the directory ftp.devel.lyx.org/pub/incoming is write only, so files uploaded to that directory cannot be downloaded from that directory.

4. Getting files to developers for them to place on the FTP-sites

In order to get a file to someone with access to the correct FTP-site, you can use a service such as www.yousendit.com.
