Hi David,

Well, I gave up on Omega a long time ago... Switched to Aleph, a stable
version of omega1.15, which has very recently been integrated into
luaTeX, which in turn is a merge of pdfTeX, the best/stable of
Aleph,and lua. This work is supported in part by a grant I received
from my university which, in part, allows Taco Hoekwater to work on the
merge etc..
Still alpha, but I can use luatex reliably for my aleph/omega docs.
OpenType fonts should be done soon, as well as direct pdf output for
omega's large fonts.
In short, luaTeX is on the move, and the developers listen to users.
Best
