 Ibiblio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In September 2000, MetaLab began to collaborate with the Center for the Public Domain; the name was changed to ibiblio to reflect the goal of being "the public's library and digital archive".
As a "Internet librarianship", ibiblio is a digital library and archive project.
ibiblio (formerly SunSITE and MetaLab) is a "collection of collections", and hosts a diverse range of publicly available information and open source software.

Users still flood ibiblio when a new upgrade is released for one of the many open-source software projects that the library hosts, but ibiblio is now much more than just a download site.

For projects with artifacts already uploaded to ibiblio it can be equal to the previous used, but for new projects it has to follow the package name rules, what means that has to be at least as a domain name you control, and you can create as many subgroups as you want.
If you want a project from any of this sites to be uploaded to ibiblio you'll have to contact the project maintainers.
You can request a upload for a maven 2 project just using the maven 2 pom.xml instead of the maven 1 project.xml referenced previously.

 ibiblio launches torrents, but loses sight of the goal connect.educause.edu
ibiblio, the famous Internet library and archive, recently launched a project to distribute content via bittorrent, a protocol which is very efficient at distributing large files over the Internet.
Unfortunately, ibiblio missed an opportunity to set themselves apart from the many who use bittorrent to distribute content of dubious legality, by completely failing to include any kind of licensing information.
Their presentations are being distributed with "License(s): None", which presumably translates into "we believe we have a (perhaps implicit) licence to distribute this content, but no record to hand of what that license might be."
