Ok... I am not at all familiar with the use of sobmosules - surprisingly
in my day job, I've never had to deal with them.  I'll do some
experimenting and see what is a good set of instructions for making sure
people get the right stuff.  Main issue is what SF itself tells you to
run to checkout the code - just a straight up git clone http:.... 
Anyway, was just curious.

I think you missed 2...

2.3.1 was released 11/16/19, 2.3.2 was released 1/14/20...  See:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/cdesktopenv/files/src/

The 'Download' button on the CDE summary page does download 2.3.2...
