This is the final beta for Pd-extended 0.43.4, its looking ready to go after this most recent big push. After debugging various GUI freeze-ups, fixing Windows for full unicode support, working on getting everything translated, this one is ready for the real world. Use your performance patches and hammer on it!
Ryan Smith made this nice screencast of some of the new editing features in this release, its a good introduction: http://youtu.be/eMhfSu3vuvQ
And you can get a listing of major changes here: http://puredata.info/dev/NextRelease
Most of the translations are close to being done, but still need some work done. If you speak a language besides English and have some minutes to spare, please contribute to the translations. You can contribute by translating untranslated sections, editing existing translations, and/or reviewing them to double-check their accuracy.
