Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup (DCSS) gets updated all the time, sometimes drastically, so in my books it's still a "fresh" (and very good) game: http://crawl.develz.org/wordpress/

Try POWDER. It's inspired by Crawl, but has enough ideas of its own. In particular it makes Crawl's weapon and god systems look pathetic. And the writing is spectacular.
When I type "powder" into Google I get random games, not sure which one you are referring to. Could you give an URL?
The only rougelike "POWDER" I'm aware of is:

It's listen along with "a few others" at eg:
