Yes ok; it's good to get rid of another one of my manually rolled 
DISTFILES finally.

I'm thinking you're probably right about pointing to the wiki. Manual 
logging of the SHA256 hash of the freeware file is probably more brittle 
than it's worth, seeing as it's subject to change at any time without 
any automated flagging of said change.
