we have more than enough resources to host stuff like this - the wiki
allows uploads of content of up to 100MB per object (it used to display
a warning for stuff that was larger than 150kb but I just disabled
that). If we have larger stuff or different needs we can always
distribute via ftp.postgresql.org and the mirror network behind it.
