• Fix several interconnected bugs related to MIDI export that were causing a variety of problems due to issues with bad event ordering and the introduction of spurious controllers
• Fix problems when recording past the end of the composition (bug #1407, r13499)

• Selection event filter can select rests
• Selection event filter can select either performance or notation duration
• LilyPond export converts a © or a (C) in the copyright header to a proper symbol automatically
• New interpretation toolbar for the notation editor streamlines the Adjust → Interpret process
• New option to allow LilyPond to export fingerings inside the staff (can improve collision resolution)
• New option to instruct Rosegarden not to start JACK automatically at startup, allowing you to control this behavior without having to put garbage in your ~/.jackdrc file
• Support LilyPond 2.14 [and I should add 2.16 now that I have a newer distro on my laptop, but this is not done yet]
• (More to come, hence pushing the release back until December)
