So we have two people who have difficulty using time machine.
i did download setup.exe and the binary packages of the last
version with XP support using the "Download but don't Install"
feature of setup.exe . (But i never tested if it's usable).
Now i would like to provide them on an HTTP Server.
i think setup.exe can use such a repository.
Right now i'm not sure if i have to ask for permission to do
so given it is open source.
Am i allowed to do this?
best regards,
Herbert Stocker
