I tried uploading a file;  Gorgonzola.cheese  and it didn't accept that 
either.  :)

What I have done, constructively, is send a request to permit .revlet files
to the hosting service.

May be the first thing everybody ought to do today, after brushing their 
teeth,
is see whether their hosting service goes "Moo" when a revlet is uploaded.

"only the cheesiest" might be an underestimation.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prior to "landing" at my current hosting service I worked my way through 
a whole
slew of providers; some who permitted JPG, GIF and PNG files ONLY!

Now, I am at the cheap (as in 'FREE') end of the spectrum; what is 
unclear to me
is how a hosting service profits by restricting the types of files it 
can host; especially,
as in the case of my service, where paying for an upgrade merely gives 
one more
storage space, but no other possibilitis (i.e. no restriction on file 
types).
