It's not really different to hosting any other distfiles; pretty much <br class="">
anywhere you can make them available is fine. If you have a GitHub repo <br class="">
where you keep the work that has gone into this, that's an easy place to <br class="">
keep the files - just create a tag and make a release using that tag, <br class="">
and you can attach whatever files you like to it.<br class="">
