Nor me -- but I _have_ actually seen the crash myself, just not at the right time to be prepared to debug it.

Despite the build system problems, 1.2.3 is nonetheless already in Cooker, so fixing the build system bugs makes no difference to this distribution. The point of interest is whether the non-build-related bugs are important enough. > I've not committed many bug fixes to stable_1_2_4, because nobody else > was interested.

I wouldn't wish to attempt that myself. Anyway, I took a look at some of the other patches that have appeared on trunk and you're right, there are quite a few more fixes we can use. I've brought across all the ones I noticed that I felt qualified to deal with: * a further marker-editor fix * Yves Guillemot's percussion matrix fixes (with Guillaume's tidyup). This one's a reasonable amount of code, but (see email of 5th Mar) it does appear to be entirely work that I would consider bug fixes rather than features. * Guillaume's composition view fixes to ensure that the segment that appears to be on top of a stack is the one that is used for mouse operations * Martin's rotary update fix for IPB * Two small composition view fixes from me (fix hang for zero duration segment, fix audio previews for repeating audio segments) and I've brought across the new .rgd files. Let's consolidate any further fixes, do a bit of testing, and release next week. I see it's the fourth of July today -- happy America, Americans! -- and that puts me in mind to suggest the 14th (Bastille day) as a nice release date for 1.2.4. How about it?
