download.koha.org is a site that LibLime created to provide a historical
archive of Koha releases done to date. It currently resides on LibLime
servers that have other web sites so we're not able to provide direct
shell/ftp access at this time.

That said, we are committed to triggering any upload request within 6 hours
or receipt.

While an interesting idea, providing direct access to download.koha.org as
you suggest would not have solved the problems that occurred with this last
release of 3.00.04. I documented the correct procedure for rolling a Koha
release in the misc/release_notes/README.txt file and following that
procedure is the best way to ensure that future releases do not suffer the
same confusion.

Sincerely,

Josh
