body: <p>what is the best practice of distributing binaries from a github project? </p>
  
  <p>I can think of:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Create a bin folder in your project where you keep a copy of the binaries. 
  However, github is meant to store source code and not binaries Storing large and 
  regularly changing binaries may be expensive qua diskspace and bandwidth?</li>
  <li>Upload a copy of the binaries to the <a href="http://pages.github.com/">github pages</a> of the 
  project, or use a separate web site for hosting your binaries. 
  However, that is not always feasible, and requires more (hand)work to keep the
  binaries up to date, I rather want to have the binaries updated automatically or with a
  single action. </li>
  </ul>
