I certainly won't deny anything Brian has said re:git and GitHub. For my immediate problem of audition controls, (1) thanks for the fix Fred (2) since I don't want to dive into cvs, can someone please attach a diff from which I can manually patch the 2.8.1 source? Provided it's not too much code, or too complicated, I'd like to do that rather than wait for a new release (though that's my other option).
