Correct. The stable release.

As far as I know: yes. But it might be a good idea to also make available 
the release that uses ZIP archives instead of ARC.

Neither do I. And no response whatsoever yet. I might ask Prof Gutknecht 
directly.

Sourceforge is mainly very s-l-o-o-w. Too many users as it seems. I'm still

problems.
