I'm afraid I quite definitely do mind. I and many other people do not read
the newsgroup incarnation of this forum. I instead am on the mailing list,
and don't have the option of choosing to skip the very long download times
for huge messages. Plus, my connection is not unlimited, meaning that
lengthy download costs money. It would have been appropriate to e-mail it to
the person who wanted it, but I think posting huge files to everybody
crosses the line. Please, don't do so again.
