Thanks for your concern and suggestions. Unfortunately, the decision was
made to only offer our public downloads (e.g. downloads.digium.com,
downloads.asterisk.org) over the HTTP protocol, not the FTP protocol, quite
some time ago. As stated in Kevin Fleming's announcement on July 26th, 2007
to the Asterisk Announce mailing list, this was done primarily for reasons
related to our marketing department (

If your response was misunderstood, please let us know and provide
clarification. Thanks again!
