First release candidate for maintenance release 1.7.1. The repository has been stable for awhile now, as most new work is taking place on the QT4 port (which still has a very, very long way to go) and I think it's time to shoot this snapshot out as a maintenance release and get this new work out there in the world.
I'll release it first thing Saturday morning local time if no one finds any critical last-minute problems. http://rosegarden.sourceforge.net/pre/rosegarden-1.7.1-rc1.tar.bz2 A draft of the impending release note follows for consideration/editing: ROSEGARDEN 1.7.1 (about to be) RELEASED The Rosegarden team is proud to announce the release of version 1.7.1 of Rosegarden, an audio and MIDI sequencer and musical notation editor for Linux. http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/ This is a maintenance release that addresses several problems reported with 1.7.0.
