Rich, you are very very right, I apologize for this mistake and hereby
post the user@host :)

PS - I also forgot to say that at the moment only Linux bins are available
and that the source is not available for alpha versions either. If you
have another operating system that you would like a binary for, please let
me know in an email and I will see what I can do (no guarantees). Thank
you all for your patience and I hope no harm was done because of these
oversights.
