    Not a significant update for me. I'm still waiting for the next stable version of SLASH'EM to come out.

    Unless Nethack adds some new features, I'll probably not redownload. Since I don't think that'll happen for a while, I'm mostly interested in games based on the Nethack source. But I do appreciate the DevTeam for continuing to fix bugs in Nethack.

    As long as the "new features" don't include another infuriating Sokoban game. I think I hated that part more than the polymorph-spawned golems.
