Maybe by reading the very first two lines on the SF page:

	...
        NOTE: current source code is available from DENX git
        repository and FTP server; see http://www.denx.de/en/Software/GIT

or by looking at the project page http://u-boot.sourceforge.net/ which
redirects you to http://www.denx.de/wiki/UBoot which has all the
significant information?

The problem is that you cannot really "shut down" a SourceForge
project (please correct me if I'm wrong).

I guess there is no real cure for this. [Same people will happily
download any temproray test version from a FTP server, though.]

Can you please teach me how to do that?

Indeed. But there is a "snapshot" link on the gitweb page...

And 1.3.0 will be out in less than 2 hours from now :-)
