The 0.99.12b is now available on the ftp. The linux release is already 
complete and can be downlaoded in 6 flavours:

.rpm
source rpm

.deb
source for .deb

binary .tar
source .tar.gz

for go32v2,win32 you need to look in the separate/ dirs for the updated 
files (date is July for the updated files)
