Maintenance happens when the maintainer is told there is a bug.  That 
hasn't happened in a while (almost three years), so there's been no need 
for updates.

At the moment I am upgrading my modeler to use polygons with more than 
four sides, and I'm rewriting my macro suite to go with it.  There will 
be an appropriate announcement when it's ready to be seen in public.

John
