[sword-devel] Ezra Project 0.14.0 released

[Tobias Klein]

Hi Greg,

There are two fixes available in Ezra Project master, you can pull and 
see whether those fixes are what you expected. Also, I could not 
reproduce one of your reported issues. See below.

>>

> Disabling the selection is what I would consider.

This is fixed now.

I could not reproduce this. Would you mind sending me a detailed 
"scenario" of your "click sequence" and which module you were using?

This is fixed now.

For now I created an issue on GitHub, have not looked into the 
root-cause yet.
