"Okay, so why is it so random?"
- Never really cared to investigate the issue, just "dragged and dropped". I
suspected some changes in the metadata part of the taf which were not
correctly converted from the old versions and then under some circumstances
crashing the whole thing.

Okay, so why is it so random?
