Hi Marcel,
Great to hear you are enjoying your study of LIDA. LIDA is very
much an active project.
The brief and full tutorial on the CCRG webpage is a bit old since
the LIDA model is gradually changing over time. There is a new
addition, however called the mind according to LIDA:
http://ccrg.cs.memphis.edu/tutorial/mind-according-to-lida.html ,
which may be useful for you. We also have an update to the
Cognitive Cycle diagram, which I believe appears in some of our
recent papers, but not as a standalone graphic, so here's an
upload of that:

Regarding the framework we haven't released anything new since
version 1.2b. Nonetheless, there is a version 1.3b in the works as
well as a new version using vector representation instead of
graph-based representation.
Best,
Ryan McCall
