[LAA] Beast 0.12.0

After quite a bit of polishing and last minute regression fixing, Beast 0.12 is finally out. https://beast.testbit.org/pub/beast-0.12.0.tar.xz https://beast.testbit.org/pub/deb/beast_0.12.0_amd64.deb The latest stable release is now tracked by a new git branch named 'wip/latest-stable'. Beware of non-linear updates to future stable releases: https://github.com/tim-janik/beast/tree/wip/latest-stable This release removes the Rapicorn dependency as well as the runtime dependency on CPython. To achieve that, a number of utilities from Rapicorn has to be integrated, which has made the code base a fair bit larger: 651 files changed, 75581 insertions(+), 44596 deletions(-) Most notably, this is the first release that installs the new ebeast UI. Tracks, piano rolls and dB meters are already displayed, but not much beyond that as it's still in pre-alpha stage. However it's a good showcase for our future UI direction, you can start it and take a quick look with: $prefix/beast-0-12/bin/ebeast Please file any bugs you encounter in the Beast bug tracker: https://github.com/tim-janik/beast/issues/ The release NEWS in all its glory is online: https://beast.testbit.org/release-notes Here is the abbreviated shortlog.
