1.2.0 will /never/ arrive then. If people don't have time to fix the 6 or so
really critical bugs why on earth do you think people will have time to debug
an entirely new architecture ?? Are you volunteering to do this and can guarantee
to have it all working within 3 months ?

I would only note the rampant patching that has happened /after/ Lars said "bug fixes
only".

In particular the new insetgraphics is still not even complete. insetfigure was working
till it got trashed.

oh and btw Lars :

        * WorkArea.C (WorkArea): initialize the scrollbar bounds.
 
        * DepTable.C (sumchange): do not evaluate end() on every iteratrion.
        (extchanged): ditto
        (ext_exist): ditto
        (remove_files_with_extension): ditto
        (remove_file): ditto
        (write): ditto
 
        * BufferView_pimpl.C (updateScrollbar): do the right thing if the
        document is smaller than the work area height. Do not initialize
        static variables to 0.

does not look like "5 weeks ago" to me !

Can people try their scrollbar troubles with this backed out ? Things are fine for me
with 0.88.9
