 RM> Please use Golded+ from github.

 RM> It contains many bugfixes when compared to Ged 3!
 RM> Sourceforge adds spyware to their downloads.

They only did that for the more popular downloads.

 RM> And EVERYBODY left it a long time ago.
 RM> I hope it dies a painful death soon!!

Sourceforge is not bad. I is more suited to packaged applications. GitHub is more for source file perusal.

 RM> What are you talking about?
 RM> I am not aware of anybody wanting money for golded!

The authors wanted money for it.
