When we graduated, one of the decisions that the community made was to
break up releases by component. The main intent was to make it easier to
release Isis more frequently.

That's certainly proven to be the case..., we've now had two releases in
four months, and whereas previously we had two releases in two years.

The flip side of this is that it is the responsibility of the component's
principal owner to make these releases.

In the case of the DnD viewer that is Rob Matthews to say when he intends
to make a release.

See above. I can tell you that as a community we no longer consider it a
production-level viewer. Although it has been used as such, we have since
then removed the remoting client/server support. So at best you should
consider it as a tool for doing prototyping only.

The code is still part of master, you'll it just hasn't been formally
released. You can find it in component / viewer / dnd.
