I haven't had a lot of time to update fractal pages at spanky for quite some time now. However I will keep the official release of Fractint up to date. I will update the page whenever it is clear that a new official release of fractint has been made. As far as I know all the recent work, (since release 20.0), has always been deemed a development path, and even now, the 20.3 release is only available in the fractint developers page http://www.fractint.org/ftp/current/dos/
Very true. The pace of development is so slow (because it's mostly Jonathan) that Fractint has been pretty stable for a long time. We probably should release. The amount of change since the last release has been considerable. In order to do that, we need a thorough-going review of the online docs, and maybe some new docs on coping with running Fractint under newer environments. I am sure Jonathan would want a chance to wring out all bugs introduced by recent changes. This could take a while. Spanky is a wonderful resource, Noel, and your rationale of updating only with a major release makes sense. Maybe someone could help html- izing the documentation. That's the main job. Of course, that can't be done until the docs are actually updated. I could take the lead on that. Tim
