Hey all, In typical form, some news on the Doggiebox front after a long spell of silence. :) I think I mentioned here awhile back that I had moved a couple of years ago to go to film school for a change of pace and new creative/ intellectual stimulation. In April of last year, I was hired for a full- time position as an assistant editor in post-production here in Vancouver. It has been a fun and rewarding new experience. Alas, I was recently laid off (along with the bulk of the company's staff) and am now back on my own. Given the circumstances, I have decided establish a new office/work space and ramp up Mac software development efforts again, full-time. Over the coming weeks my intent is to address current bugs and usability problems in Doggiebox, and begin a new branch where I can finally get working on long-awaited new features and improvements such as have been raised and discussed on this list in the past. I've already fixed a MIDI export problem under 10.4 as well as a copy- and-paste bug in the pattern editor, and should have a maintenance release out soon. I would like to thank you all for your enthusiasm over the past few years, and I'm heartened that you're still hanging around on this list. :) -ben -- Ben Kennedy (chief magician) zygoat creative technical services http://www.zygoat.ca
