</div>
<div>you simply upload a fixed version. I think the proper fix is that for the git version, git is used to download. It only makes sense to download a TGZ from http if the source is also a tar ball. But I was waiting for us to decide whether we will change
regressiontests to a submodule before I change that.</div>

<div>I have a serious concern: as nobody has noticed this except me, I think people are simply running the regressiontests (while I do know that many people are using the source from git). I tend to think this is a problem of communication/documentation and
we should try to improve on this aspect. Not only that if the tests are not used it was a half-futile effort to make them work, but knowing how fragile intrinsic-based kernels are, it is also dangerous.</div>

https://code.google.com/p/gromacs/downloads/list</a> the 4.6 was downloaded 328. I think this makes this useful. master was only downloaded 15 so it seems that my assumption that it is mostly useful to people with tar ball not git is mostly true.</div>

<div>I'm not sure what the conclusion is to which you might be objecting. Users have downloaded the tests, which is a good thing. We haven't had a forest of complaints about it, but we can't know whether that's a good or bad thing.</div>

<div>People with the gromacs 4.6 tarball got the correctly-working regressiontests-4.6.tar.gz around 328 times. People with the post-4.6 git branch tried to get the broken regressiontests-master.tar.gz many fewer times. We don't know how many people with either
did no testing. Shrug.</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>I think it would be very good if we had a download counter for the source archives. Either by installing one on our server or using a service like google code to provide the download storage for the source. I would find it very interesting to see how many downloaded the code.</div>
