MESS provides official u-builds now. So does almost every derivative build. Also, how could people report bugs at mametesters if they couldn't get hold a of copy?

I think as long as a suitable disclaimer is provided, there should not be a problem with someone hosting it officially. Doesn't have to be mamedev.org

Conclusion if MAMEdev problem is really only a bandwidth issue they should consider learning a less 1990-ish language than html and go for modern servers.

As for the topic, I don't really believe in a quality control set up for mametesters. I believe the more people can get these "u" builds, the more likely legit bugs will be reported in due time. But... whatever... builds are available in any good news site so mamedevs running that site can keep being lazy.

I agree. (Except for the lazy part )
