Yes, it would be nice to see a new release.  I had an email exchange with
Lothar a while ago, and he was deeply into making some major changes
to the code.  (He told me what he was working on, but since it
was a private conversation I won't repeat what he said.)

As someone who's considered writing and marketing a program myself,
I can empathize with having to simultaneously do design/development/
marketing/support/etc/etc/etc.

I'm always glad to see the new features Lothar puts in, but the
current version of Arachno is 100% usable for my day-to-day work.

Take care,

Wayne
