Apologies, I don't read dates very well. They are the old ones, I thought I had replaced them (but obviously not). But again, considering the date, I'm not sure about why they didn't go up (you repackaged as I asked, so there must have been a reason it got lost - or I got so distracted that I forgot - always possible). I'm guessing that I was trying to work out the licensing. Just to make sure I don't get in trouble with sourceforge again.... I couldn't find anything clear on the via site about licensing. Although I may not have found the right place.....
