You can delete downloads that you create accidentally by clicking on
the row for that download in the downloads list (not the filename
itself which immediately starts sending you the file), then click the
"Delete" link in the toolbar area directly under the main tabs.

However, once a file has been out there for a period of time and has
been downloaded a number of times, it is too late. The file is
already cached in many places around the internet and you can only
deprecate it. Don't worry about the space that it takes up, quota are
just there to limit abuse, we are happy to increase the quota for
legitimate OSS projects as needed.

If you discover late that some file that you thought was good and that
has been out there for a while, actually contains sensitive data or
something, then file an issue in the "support" project and we will
manually take the file down for you.

Thanks,
jason!
