Informations about Dolphin Chess 1.4?

During an attempt to update my outdated engine folders I noticed that there are no real traces that Dolphin Chess 1.4 ever had existed?

1. There are no tests except for version 1.0
(CCRL Chesswar etc.)

2. All downloads only boil down to 1.0 and timestamps from 2010

3. The sourceforge download has a timestamp from 07/2010
https://sourceforge.net/projects/dolphinchess/
(the newest file in it from 13/07/2010 one day after the register date
of that sourceforge site)

4. All wayback archives from the old original site have no downloads
and don't mention version numbers at all
https://web.archive.org/web/20121027152 ... ex_en.html

5. A research here revealed nothing new and did not help.
Even this one which also mentions 1.4:

The data about 1.4 originally came from Leos' WBEC news pages:

If someone has a version 1.4 and or a copy with an original timestamp from 2011 please answer here and send me a copy of it for comparison ;-)
I need perhaps to correct the data at the XB/UCI chronology. It is still possible that this version just was lost somehow.

The newest one to find seems the first update also named 1.0 from 11/2010.
