The last one got out today friday as a dde200L in lnx4games and is not comng 
out more if it not is regular 200 vwersion without build number so stable 
Doomday Engine of DDE is 1.15.6 the real Doomsday Engine is dmd 1.15.7 so if 
things is working is there goes about 3-4 months is dmd up on version 2.0.0 
then.
Mostly is the OS to be tried to be just around 40-50M for Linux and Win at 
30-40M and the MAC is changing around 49-53M.
But MAC dmg versions is sometimes smaller and sometimes bigger in split files 
from 3-4 files.


  Take care,
            Gert
