[OS X TeX] BibDesk 0.97.9

[Adam R. Maxwell]

The BibDesk development team is pleased to announce the availability of 
BibDesk 0.97.9, hot off the compiler.  Once again, it looks like the 
number of bugs fixed exceeds the number of cool new features, but this 
doesn't take into account all of the new bugs introduced by said new 
features!  Be that as it may, we're receiving very few crash reports 
these days, so either everyone has switched to another program, or 
BibDesk is improving.

There are some significant bug fixes in this release, including some 
potential data loss issues with the experimental parser, so everyone is 
encouraged to update immediately.  Thanks to those of you who submitted 
detailed bug reports, feedback, and even patches.  As always, bugs 
should be filed on SourceForge at 
<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=61487&atid=497423>, so we 
don't lose them!
