videolan maintained the server, carl does most of the moving files to
our samples repo and bug trac.

but heres the new news from #videolan:

[05:41] <thresh> Compn, http://streams.videolan.org/upload/ should work
more or less

^ this is currently where we should send users to upload files. an http
uploader (not sure about resume support...).

[05:49] <thresh> Compn, there will be no ftp access to streams, ever
[05:50] <thresh> Compn, we're following the Great Leadership of
kernel.org

^^ this is the news on the ftp that we currently have in our docs. so
we should change all of our docs over to the http uploader.

also i suggest we ask for a backup ftp server from another host (by
applying this or similar patch), for those people who prefer to use ftp.
