I hate to ask dumb questions, but I really don't want to mess up what I've
downloaded.
I had no idea what svn up was, so I Googled and found it. I made a guess
that my working version might well be my rosegarden directory. I fired up a
terminal and to my total amazement, it actually updated. How exactly it
knows where the repository is, is still a mystery to me. I assume it isn't
connected to the Synaptic Package Manager. Never mind, it works and I was
just curious.

"Rebuild" is another question. I tried my luck typing rebuild in the
terminal and it didn't know what I was talking about - neither did I know
what I was talking about.... I've used Clear Case with Visual Studio. The
svn up is the equivalent of Clear Case, but I am missing the Visual Studio
compiler, linker part. I'm sure it is trivial for anyone who has done it
once....

I didn't report the quantize not working in the notation editor as a bug,
because it isn't a bug in my eyes. You are working hard to get it all
together and you don't need a nudnick to tell you it isn't yet hooked up. I
am hooked up to the lists via Nabble (since I hate getting all sorts of mail
in my in box). In Nabble I see developers and users, but no bugs.

My bottom line purpose is to try to be helpful, and to do that I'd like to
get a "close enough to working" copy for my wife to work with. I'm
unfortunately not a musician, so on my own I'm not worth much in helping. I
want to be familiar enough with Thorn so that I can answer some questions.
There was still the open question (in my mind) about the quantize and how to
do it, so I started with it. At this point, there doesn't seem much point in
working with the Classic version.

I will try to learn the terminology so that I can describe things
accurately. Sometimes I just use screen shots, since they are always
accurate. 
Thanks,
Ilan
