Yahoo Groups is free, and is the home of the MC IDE project so I know it
works well with .sit files.
It's file space is limited to 20MBs, but if your IDE is larger than that
it won't get downloaded often anyway. :)

who've visited. If that doesn't work out there's always the beautiful
weather of Malta....
