Yeah the pro apps were updated

All the proapps were updated yesterday. And if you're on leopard it fixes a bunch of things (in other words, if you were foolish enough to jump to leopard with your production system, run software update now.)

If you were 'holding off'...this might be a good time to test the water, or go over to MacFixit and wait a couple of days to see if anyone singes their fingers off.

UG mailing list problem.

Yup there's a problem with our mailing list.  Nope, don't know what it is.  Hopefully this weekend will sort it out.

Lost Render Files for Duplicated Sequences Issue Resolved

In previous versions of Final Cut Pro, rendered items of a duplicated sequence could become unrendered after you reopened a project. In these cases, the render bar indicated that the items were rendered, but the items appeared unrendered during playback in the Canvas. This issue has been resolved in Final Cut Pro 6.0.2.

SO....how's your leopard + fcp install?

I'm holding off and likely going to do a clean install...but does anyone have any thoughts?
