[Summary-Talk] Re: Summary 2.6 beta 7 is now available for Mac OS X and Linux

[Dale LaFountain <dalela@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the referring domain changes Jason!

I'm still tracking a problem with "StrTable.cpp:895: failed
assertion" that has occurred as recently as 2.6b6 (haven't seen it
yet in b7, but I'm only a couple days into it).

I did notice that the database was corrupted when I restarted b7 just
now, even though it hadn't thrown any assertion errors in the logs
since being restarted and a full process run.

I quit and restarted again right after this, and it started up fine
the next time around.  I'll try restarting again after the next
incremental run to see if this behavior is repeatable with my dataset.

More to follow.

Keep up the good work!
