daVinci, their current state and available fixes or work-arounds.
The developers will update this report as soon as a new bug is found or a fix

You can also download daVinci directly from the ftp-server at

ftp://ftp.wustl.edu/graphics/graphics/packages/daVinci
in the USA) are mirroring daVinci,
but it usually takes some time to see a new release on one of the mirrors.
