Wow, the end of this year is really soon!

Do you have any plans what to code for this release?

Well, thats true of course, but unless a whole new bunch of features get coded 
the new release doesn't add that much from a users point of view.

If I may give a suggestion.
I think it's still better to stick to the old plan and code MUE when you have 
time again instead of coding new stuff which probably holds back the MUE 
development when it starts sometime in the future.
Also, the code base at the moment is in a very good shape for developing MUE, 
which may become much less when a simple undo engine gets coded in :-(

For my part, I don't need or want a new release at the moment, but I do like a 
Protux with a good and clean Undo Engine.
Of course, a lot of refinements can be made all over the program, but coding a 
"temporarily undo engine",  I don't like it, sorry :-)

Please, rethink this situation. Nobody wins when a new version of Protux is 
released in a hasty manner with almost no additional features/improvements 
made in respect to the previous release.

Thanks,

Remon
