And instead of that, I uploaded the 1.3.2 windows binaries. Hopefully the
download count of 1.2.1 will now begin to drop.

Typo?
Anyways if anyone cares I've uploaded OS/2 binaries to 
http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-search.php?button=Search&key=flac-1.3.1&dir=%2F

Yes, I uploaded 1.3.1.

There will probably be a 1.3.2 release in the next couple of weeks.

How about using Sourceforge only for the most recent version?

It would prevent any possible confusion (or the hassle with SF?s byzantine file
interface) and if people are looking for older versions they could always go to
http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/flac/.

I'm keeping an eye on this page:

     https://sourceforge.net/projects/flac/files/flac-win/

which lists downloads per week for all the different versions. If at the
end of the week flac-1.2.1-win drops below 100 downloads a week there is
no problem with keeping it there.

Thats is a possibility.
