   Well, there are definitely new modules written-- I have four at the moment
(real cool), and have a bunch in the works, including clones of some of the
more popular After Dark modules. (Names withheld until we can get something
that's not a direct port, such as "No sharks and Fish!" ;-)  In addition, I
have put some major enhancements in to MiniFireworks (up to 15 fireworks on
the screen at once), clocks, and others. 

   Jim Maricondo will be updating the main CDev soonish, bug him
(afcdyajim@aol.com) to really start it and get a new version out soon. If
there is enough demand (i.e. BUG JIM!), we may be able to release a "Module
Update Disk" before the CDev is formally updated.

   I may be porting over a few X-Windows (Unix) screen savers; they would 
have to be freeware because I have someone else's C source in front of me :)
If there is sufficient interest, I may port a few soon... (And write them
in assembly; my experiences with Orca/C have been very negative; I'll have to
see how Orca/Pascal misbehaves). Therefore, BUG ME :)
