Given that I'm using about 2 of my 40 GB monthly bandwidth, I'd be willing to mirror OpenACS downloads on my server. What do I need to do?

Michael, that would be awesome.

All that really needs to be done is to go to the openacs documentation page, download the openacs tarball, and put it on your web server in a location that can be reached by http without going through forms. Then send the link to Joel and ask him if he could put it in the documentation.

Done. The 4.6.3 tarball is now available at: http://michael.yoon.org/download/openacs/openacs-4.6.3.tgz

I've also emailed the link to Joel.

By the way, AOLserver's "fancy" and "simple" directory listing styles appear to be identical on my server. Is that what's expected, or am I screwing something up?

The request processor hijacks generating directory listings (if aolserver's dir listing is turned on) but generates the same listing regardless of whether fancy or simple is chosen. See rp_html_directory_listing if you want to fix it...

Thanks for the explanation, Jeff. I think it's best for all parties if I don't attempt to hack on the Request Processor...
