here is the Danasah homepage, noting the release at the time. The Danasah homepage is publicly accessible.
So now we have to scour each author's homepage on the chance something new is there. Publicly accessible site=public release??? Your statement doesn't pass the smell test.
Nothing fishy or smelly about the Danasah 5.00 release at all that I can see.
I'm pretty sure that that Leo and Ron find much of their information by scouring the engine homepages.
I doubt that every engine author automatically informs them upon each new release of their engine.
There is a software that scan everyday certain web pages automatically and inform youi f there is anychanges in them........
I assume Leo does it this way

Graham is right, I informed him that there was a version 5 and so he did not have to repeat the games.
I usually warning to Leo when I have a new version of the engine, I waited because I had to modify the website, build executables for Linux and Android and create a readme.txt file with the changes. But from some more than a month I had to stop all activities and I will surely stopped another month.
Not sure if Leo uses software to check for changes in Web pages, Rom make it for Computer Chess Wiki, but in my case he not found the new version because the website is not modified, only one new entry in the chat.

With pleasure !
Sometimes a small fish is extremely delicious !
Do you remember Rybka ?
An epoch !
SilvianR (testing a double "she") ! I'm serious, be sure ! It's a new old chess program ! An uber secret one !
I'm sorry, Ruxy- but this time I see nothing humorous about this situation. I didn't just ride into town on the turnip truck. Now someone wants to be slick and slowly ease the blame toward Leo. Bullshit. Why didn't it show up in wiki either? I know exactly what happened. He wanted it tested- wasn't sure it was ready to really be released. But it was available on his site- which means it can be said it was being kept from no one. Notwithstanding the fact that when you click on "latest download", or "latest version" it still shows 4.88. But blame that on a site overhaul. All very convenient.

You mean, the page that has two dead links, one of them marked as "new"? The page that the author himself admits is not actively maintained?
Yeah George, it's a conspiracy, specifically designed to get you upset. Oh, those dastardly chess programmers!

Tony, it is cut and dried. You know good and well any programmer- bar none- who has an updated version that he knows is 25 to 50 elo stronger than his previous one- would be raising holy hell if it had been on his site semi-hidden for 30 days- and no mention in Leo's or wiki. (Ron admitted they were looking in the wrong place-the usual place did not show it) All you have to do is go to CCRL single cpu and see that as of yet it isn't showing to even be as strong as 4.88. Admittedly only 82 games- but with enough, it "may or may not be stronger." And that is why Pedro hasn't been eager for everyone and their uncle to have it. He knew exactly what he was doing. The mistake is that people think I am pissed because I didn't get it earlier. Not at all. I don't have it now- and may not run any more of his versions. And I am sure he will lose tons of sleep over that. I spent 4 months, starting Sept. 1 running over 230 freeware engines- and am still not quite through yet. and his 4.88 was one of them. And you are wrong if you think I was doing it for myself. And this is how I get treated. A quasi-public release that Ron had to find out about from Ruxy. And 2 different back up excuses if needed- 1.Well, it was there. 2. Well, I was overhauling the site. He knew exactly what he was doing.
