wheel packages will no longer be uploaded to Github for next releases, as they are automatically published on the Python Package Index.

Releasing executable is a slippery road - there are tons of different OS / CPUs. Releasing for some of combinations would make people unhappy, that their favorite combination is not supported.
That is why binaries are released via appropriate binary distribution systems, e.g. HomeBrew or PyPI or linux distros.
If you have some specific OS / CPU in mind, we would be glad to try to support specific binary distribution system.

Well, Windows would be a start, seeing how Zstd, Lizard and LZ4 are already
doing that:

Agreed, executables for Windows (32/64 bit) would be a great start.

Latest build could be taken from here: https://bintray.com/eustas/brotli/bin/snapshot/view/files?sort=name&order=asc#files/
Next release will contain those artifacts as well.

"Next release" happened on Sep 21, 2017. It actually contains windows artifacts: https://github.com/google/brotli/releases/tag/v1.0.0

Later (1.0.1 and 1.0.2) are minor sub-releases, mostly concenred about non-Windows build tools.

Going to attach windows artifacts to the next sub-release (1.0.3) when it is ready.

Hi. The last release that included Windows binaries was v1.0.4. The 3 releases since then have only included the source code. Have you stopped providing Windows binaries?

Since bintray was deprecated and closed by jfrog, where can we get the new builds now?

I need prebuilt binaries for webservers / hosting setups and building them myself is not an option.

I'm working on migration to github actions right now. Whet it is finished, binaries from the latest build will be always available.

Did you stop releasing Windows binaries again? The latest release I can find with Windows binaries is v1.0.4, which is four years old.

Or are Windows binaries somewhere else now?

I suppose all links in my previous reply are expired by now.
Thankfully I still had the executable I downloaded back then saved
