The BibDesk team is pleased to announce that version 0.97.5 is
available for download from http://bibdesk.sourceforge.net/. There are
numerous new features in this release, so please be sure to read the
online help for details. Numerous bugs have been fixed for this
release, as well, and Jaguar users should be happy to note that
compatibility with that release of OS X is restored.
WARNING: If you use the new Unicode-aware parser features, make a
backup of your .bib file first! This is a very new feature, although
it seems to work well in our tests. Read the notes in the online help
before using this feature.
As always, please file your bug reports at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=61487&atid=497423, with
detailed steps to reproduce; please note the expected behavior, and
BibDesk's actual behavior. Many thanks to those of you who filed
reports that allowed us to immediately track down the problem!
