Re: Ubuntu Trusty testers needed

Right. I deeply question that logic though. The fact that a corrupted save bug was fixed is sort of a game changer from a usability perspective. I mean, if it wasn't well known, well documented, or fixed, I might say that it makes sense but as it stands, releasing code that has a known
