Hi, just curious. How come there hasn't been a new version released since June 2012? :/ *worried*

Toady's dev cycle looks like this:
1) Don't release anything for a year or two to make major content upgrades.
2) A fast cycle of mainly bug-fix releases. Sometimes this includes new content, but it's mainly focused on bug-fixing.

By working in this way it allows him to rework the game without needing to worry about keeping the game playable while doing it, and he always has a dev log that he keeps fairly up to date.

This, basically. It's a fairly decent development cycle.

The hauling update can be "fixed" by bringing some wheelbarrows and then mass-producing them, I guess.
