The BibDesk development team is pleased to announce that BibDesk  
1.2.4 is now available for download at http:// 
bibdesk.sourceforge.net/.  This release adds a few new features, but  
future releases in the BibDesk 1.x series will hopefully just have  
bug fixes, as we move development efforts to BibDesk 2.0.

Thanks to those of you who reported bugs in our nightly builds and  
helped improve this release.  As usual, please continue to report  
bugs at <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=61487&atid=497423>.
