The link to the beta installer is getting too much traffic for DropBox.
Error (429)
This account's links are generating too much traffic and have been

Perhaps it is time for a more appropriate host. What is needed to add a “mac”
directory to ftp.gnu.org.gnu/octave?
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/octave/mac
And how are uploads managed?
