Thanks for the kind words Andrew - Glad you're enjoying those projects! They are a blast, and it's been great to be/have been a part of them. We've got a nice update to pinmame coming literally in a few days, though I don't see us moving to the latest source from MAME anytime soon. We are way behind versions at this point, and to bring the sources up to the latest code would take a tremendous amount of effort which nobody seems to have time nor desire to do. The biggest reason though, is probably lack of a compelling reason to go through all the pain to do it. :)
Having not played with the new artwork features of MAME recently, how would you see that benefiting pinmame? (be specific) If I can get someone (or myself) excited about the idea, perhaps we could at least discuss moving to the latest source branch.
