Well, if possible, can we ignore this flaw for now? Fixing it is always trouble and users actually get sources with .exe.

BTW, got 2 emails, important parts:

I hope, as it IS freeware, this does not apply Wink

BTW, what about "mass submission" sites?

About the flaw, I suppose it is okay. User will still be able to visit U++ site to get the Linux source. Smile

Yes, if freeware, most software directories will not need a link back but some do, so we need to plan for a link back page.

There are mass submission commercial software but from my experience, I would rather not use them. Different sites have different way of processing the PAD file, i.e. some will only extract certain information from the pad file, some will need us to specify the category and others require a login account if you want to submit. There are just too many variations in procedures.

For now, I'll submit to sites on this list which does not require a login account.

PAD submission is very easy. I just paste the pad URL into a form and click "submit". The site will load, parse the file and create a listing. I spend about an hour each day going through the PAD sites, checking up on my listings and updating them. So I can help with U++ pad submission. Smile
