This release adds a few minor features and fixes a goodly number of bad bugs.
The most interesting new features are a new configuration option that allows
you to avoid starting JACK when Rosegarden starts, and a new Interpret Toolbar
in the notation editor that provides a streamlined way of applying the
interpretations formerly only accessible through the Interpret dialog.
