Strk,

remotesensing.org is back online, so you can grab the latest.

In *general* the version of the epsg definitions you use with PROJ.4
should not be tightly linked to the version of PROJ.4 library you are
using.  The issue just arises in areas where new features are added,
or bugs are fixed.

There shouldn't be much version specificity for folks not using
non-greenwich prime meridians for instance.

Best regards,
