Hi folks,
I noticed two files SysinternalsSuite.zip and mwbytes.exe at the
top level of ftp://gcc.gnu.org. Can/should we remove those?
And how about those .notar files dating back to 1999? Would it
make sense to remove those?

I'd say yes to all of those. We probably should be doing a much better
job of auditing those directories.

I just ran the following:
% rm ~ftp/SysinternalsSuite.zip
% rm ~ftp/mwbytes.exe
% find ~ftp/ -name .notar -exec echo {} \;
/var/ftp/pub/gcc/releases/gcc-2.95.2.1/.notar
/var/ftp/etc/.notar
/var/ftp/lib/.notar
/var/ftp/bin/.notar
/var/ftp/usr/.notar
(And again, replacing "echo" by "rm" ;-)
And also had a look for similarly interesting files, but did not spot
any.
