[Coco] Colorcomputerarchive harmful behavior

Who runs this site?  Can anyone get in touch with them and ask them to
please stop distributing outdated versions of software created and
maintained by other people?

Its one thing to be an "archive" of software that is no longer under
development, but distributing out of date versions of current projects does
nobody any good.  That's why active projects nearly always insist on
coordinated mirrors (or do not allow mirrors at all).

The heart might be in the right place, but things like this make our
community even more difficult for newcomers.

Never distribute the files of someone elses active project!
