I finally got a response, see comments for <https://sourceforge.net/blog/introducing-sourceforges-new-markdown-text-editor/> They are actively working on resolving the biggest issue (mislocated cursor position in certain cases) I reported. But I sense that resolution will not be quick. Furthermore, it appears the mouse select and middle button paste issues are known, but resolution will be slow. The new SourceForge markdown editor uses the CodeMirror library which exposes a firefox (and presumably konqueror) bug concerning mouse select and middle button paste. Therefore, my plan now is to go ahead with the release (starting today but probably finishing tomorrow) using the idea of putting our comprehensive test reports directly into the release notes using SourceForge markdown table format.
