Everything above should be the latest in CVS except for the "pd" 
directory, which is 0.39.3.  You can either use the tarball,  or CVS to 
get 0.39.2.  Its nice to use CVS because then you  can use CVS to run 
diffs and retreive files if you delete them, etc.  You can check out 
0.39.2 by doing this:

cvs checkout -r v0_39_2 pd

There are the bug and feature trackers plus many files called TODO 
embedded in the source.
