[Ardour-Users] Ardour 4.4 released

[©raig ®au]

Turned on 4.2 last night and the session selection window started scrolling
something strange along the top. At first I was like, "oh no..." Then I
read the text and was like, "oh yeah!" Worked on my session in 4.4 late
into the night... THANK YOU TEAM ARDOUR!
