0.2.5 is the most recent, but there have been a number of problems reported with my (admittedly slightly sloppy) packaging of it. There will be an 0.2.6 with fixes for these problems, but unless someone else steps up and does it, it won't happen (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Ok, big surprise: it turns out I'm a moron.
