Personally I'm really grateful that someone maintains this software. It's been so useful to me over the years.  If I could give the beer tokens I would, in the meantime a local charity gets something for their annual fundraising as per the maintainer's suggestion.

Given that it's effectively maintenance releases, then it's not that hard to look occasionally (or if the worst happens, when it stops working) so I'm not bothered if there's not a formal announcement. Someone will pick it up and send a note out as George did - Thanks George.

Not sure it has been mentioned on here (if it has I missed it, sorry), but a
new version of get_iplayer came out in February.

most recent entry with an extant media file instead of the oldest entry.

        Programme info pages and help page now open in new window/tab
        Play* links now open in new window/tab
        Play* links are no longer displayed for deleted files

Safari)

        Removed Quicktime, AVI streaming formats
        Added MPEG-TS, Matroska, AAC, Vorbis streaming formats
Windows: Fixed incorrect documentation link in installer finish screen
macOS: get_iplayer should work on Apple Silicon systems via Rosetta 2, but
this has not been verified. The developers do not have access to an Apple
Silicon system.
get_iplayer 3.27 or higher is required with Mojolicious 9.0+. Earlier
releases of Mojolicious will continue to work with get_iplayer 3.27 or
higher.

Hope that is helpful to someone 😊
