I have tried getting the Downline author to use the StuffIt Engine in the past to handle newer StuffIt archives. The other option would be for him (Eric Bloodswroth??) to send Apple events to StuffIt Expander to perform the file expansion - I'll even give him (or anyone else that wants) source code for doing so.
