The sotware seems a little out of date - it hasn't taken into account the recent German spelling reform, as he writes "daß" instead of the new "dass".

I hadn't heard of this, but I'd say it's about time. Germany (and its Deutsch-speaking neighbors) were the only places in Western Europe that didn't use the standard Roman(esque) alphabet. When I took German in high school, every time I saw an ß or similar written, I thought I'd been thrown back with Beowulf and Grendel.
