<p>This release addresses a critical bug for OSX users who are

- correctly through the 'Save As' dialog box. The 'Save As' dialog for
- Jalview's Groovy Console remains affected - we hope to address this
- in the next major release.</p>

+ <em>Known Issues</em>
+ <ul>
+ <li>OSX: The 'Open File' dialog for Jalview's Groovy Console

+ </li>
+ <li>OSX: Links don't open when clicked on or via the Sequence or Alignment window popup menu.</li>
+ <li>OSX (Webstart): Jalview only displays old news feed items</li>
