Hi Paul,

The project definitely seems to have slowed down somewhat over the last
couple of years looking at the SourceForge project statistics.  Last
year saw 5 releases.  So far this year, none. :(

The last release was 6 months ago, which isn't *that* bad considering
a lot of people are still running on Windows XP which was released 117
months ago ;D

Grant.
