So here it is, the release version of ABCDEmo. Only little changes

Some Comments
-------------
"Even though it offered no technical showcase. I think The Project
offered a production full of very incisive and pertinent criticism
on demos and the demoscene with a lot of humour."
-- Unkelben
"In my opinion, ABCDemo had to win! Ok, there was no technical
merit, but no one had technical stuff to show anyway!!! Do you
think that 3D is technical?? Using opengl/directX is technical?
Visual Basic is technical? So from that point of view, there was
not a single real demo in the competition! ABCDemo was just great,
it was funny at least..."
