      <p>
        Ardour 3.5.403 is (yet another) <strong>CRITICAL</strong> bug fix
        release. <strong>ALL USERS ARE RECOMMENDED TO
        UPGRADE</strong>. Additionally, <strong>ALL LINUX
        DISTRIBUTIONS SHOULD IMMEDIATELY UPGRADE/UPDATE TO THIS
        RELEASE</strong>. Distributing earlier versions of 3.5 at this
        point is irresponsible and risks our users' data.
      </p>
      <p>
        As with 3.5.380, this release includes several more absolutely
        vital fixes for bugs could lead to audio and MIDI files being
        irreversibly deleted from disk.
      </p>
      <p>
        We still do not know precisely how
        these losses happened - no user ever found a reliable recipe
        to recreate all of them - but reports from several different
        users did lead to a careful code review which uncovered some
        potential for file loss.
      </p>
      <p>
        There are a few other minor fixes and improvements described
        below.
      </p>
      <p>
        As usual you can download it from <a href="
http://ardour.org/download">the usual
          place</a>, and as usual subscribers get this update without
        cost. Thanks to everyone for their support (and encouragement).
      </p>
      <p>
        Once again, the OS X release situation has still not improved,
though
        a demo 64 bit copy of this version is available (fully featured
except that is has
        does no saving or restoring of plugin settings, and no plugin
presets).
      </p>
