I have uploaded a new release of /beta/BNU217B.ZIP some months ago.
I have manually strped the binaries contained in the original
zip file and compressed them with UPX.  Later a discussion started
about the usfullness of UPX and I have stopped the compress binaries
but I have not changed this package again.
I will recompile the sources from scratch with stock djdev204 and
replace the existing beta package.

Juan M. Guerrero
