The last report I heard was that dentries have progressed far beyond
what was written for the original omirr. Omirr now has to be re-written to
take advantage of this. Thomas (the man behind the original omirr) stated
plans to do this work after dentries have stabilised and when he can get
some more students to work on it. I expect that if it doesn't get released
in a couple of weeks then it won't be released until March.
