	It's now available at -

ftp://ftp.muppetlabs.com/pub/ldescent/ldescent-0.0.17.tgz

It includes X11 & joystick support, but there's a bunch of stuff left for me 
to do, including

	* Improved X11 support
		- Support window size changes
		- Using the mouse

	* SpaceOrb support
		- I've located a generic library that'll talk to the serial
		  port and interpret the protocol that it uses.

	* Extra FreeBSD support
		- Using libvgl, which is very similar to SVGAlib.
		- Allowing the use of the various assembler versions of the
		  texture mapping & scanline mapping routines.

	* Winding the Pentium & PPro specific routines back into the formal
	  distribution.

After I posted the announcement to the descent mailing list, the fellow whoe 
SpaceOrb library I intend to use told me that he's planning on adding the 
support himself.


	Stephen
