MAME 0.105u3 has been released over at MAMEDev. Among several improvements by the MAMEDev's, Aaron has uncommented/added missing undumped ROMs/XORs in the Namco and CPS2 games. See the whatsnew.txt for details.
The revelation of several missing ROM's has resulted in a steep increase in the number of recorded nodumps in MAME as seen below. With 6124 romsets in MAME there are 774/6124 or 0.126 bad/missing roms per romset or roughly 1 missing ROM in every 8 romsets.
I've updated all the Infos: CHD, Baddumps, Nodumps, BIOS's. The Baddump + Nodump total is 288 + 486 = 774, baddumps down by 6 and nodumps up by 191 from MAME 0.105u2. See Tim's Emulation Page.

A February update over at The Cunningham Project Site.
I've rerun my program to generate an updated set of Cunningham tables in my favourite text and HTML formats.
I've also attempted to fix a distressing bug in the text output where under certain circumstances 12 digits were being lost - eek! Hopefully this is now fixed for good.
In other news I've updated my GIMPS page with some factors I've found over the past six months.
See Tim's Mathematics Page for the updates.
MAME 0.105 has been released over at MAMEDev. See the whatsnew.txt for details.
The MAME 0.105 release comes with some CHD news. Firstly, the two missing CHD's added in MAME 0.103u3 (sf2049se.chd and sf2049te.chd) have appeared at last. Thus I have been able to add the CHD information for them. A second surprise is the integration of 3 former CHD Sooners into MAME 0.105:
- Battle Tryst (ver JAC): btltryst\btltryst.chd
- Heat of Eleven '98 (ver EAA): heatof11\heatof11.chd
- Tobe! Polystars (ver JAA): polystar\623jaa02.chd
There are now 86 CHD games in MAME made up of 70 CHD's and 16 clones. There are 17 CHD sooners that haven't yet been added to MAME.
I've updated all the Infos: CHD, Baddumps, Nodumps, BIOS's. The Baddump + Nodump total is 289 + 297 = 586, baddumps up by 2 and no change to nodumps from MAME 0.104u9. See Tim's Emulation Page.

I've updated all but CHD Info: Baddumps, Nodumps, BIOS's. The Baddump + Nodump total is 287 + 297 = 584, no change to baddumps and nodumps up by 1 from MAME 0.104u8. See Tim's Emulation Page.
