      Ah, I'd wondered;  I'm used to seeing a post about releases but I thought    
   perhaps I'd missed something...

     So that's how Michael Ryan got ahold of it...

     That might be a good idea...

     I appreciate that but it's not entirely nececceary if a copy is hatched out

     I've also been wondering about that.  I'm planning to set up a new system,    
   in part for testing IPv6 (on Debian 8, where I've not been able to get a    
   manual compile to work yet...), so I've been thinking about what I'll need to
