I've been faithfully subscribing to net.sources.games since June and I've
only seen 'patches' for Hack.  I agree with Herb Chong, It's time for a
formal distribution of the latest version so that we can all be talking
about the same thing.  If, somehow, 100k of code slipped past my screen 
without me seeing it, I'll humbly eat my words.  Perhaps he who posted the 
last distribution should make this decision.
