I'd suggest keeping all the large binaries/images in git anyway (PDF's etc, from a quick look at the commits) - it makes the site self contained and removes any barrier to contribution. Git handles binaries well, although very large assets (ISO's/VM images?) would need some separate thought. As CLJ said, Github has facilities for managing downloads/releases, probably easiest once the source repositories move (as that would be the most appropriate place for them) as IIRC they can be related to tags.
