Some pretty cool stuff has happened.  Firstly, I transferred several maps to my computer when I took the risk of using one of the new blank floppies that I'd bought earlier.  I've looked at the following maps in recent days: Jan Van der Veken's Classic 10: Mercurius Pools (and it's version b), Classic 11: Deimos Spaceport; Nuts3 by B.P.R.D.; Deus Ex Machina by Andy Leaver; Nick Baker's cool hybrid map E1 MAP01; Alexis Neuhaus's Real World to mention a few.

That's as far as playing Doom is concerned.  I'm also looking at Doomworld and Newdoom, and recently I saw the new PlanetDoom (of course that's for Doom III news).  I still need to update my CCT2 and Metamorphism pages, but on the internet connected computers here, there seems to be some restriction on FTP.  When I am able to upload files I can update those pages (I also really must change the news archive index page).

And finally we come to the most important part of this update: my MAPPING!!  What's been going on?  Last time I was quite vague about the whole thing, but the fact is, I'd started building a small level at that time.  By now, it is about 95% complete!  This is going to be MAP01 of a set of maps that I will be working on whenever I have the time.  Still no plans on the number of maps, or a time frame, but I have some very interesting ideas.  If I am able to pull them off properly, this is going to be a very cool levelset indeed.
