Just a heads up before the final version is released:

it seems like running subprocesses (e.g. in Hugin's "2. Align" step or when running PTBatcher) doesn't work (no progress is shown in that log window, and clicking on "Cancel" results in: "Failed to kill process XXXX, error: 3: no such process"). I'll try to debug that later this week.

Have there been any changes regarding this since the last release?

There are no changes in that area that I'm aware.

We are still using wxExecute with some Hugin code to get the progress into the progress window.

There is some Mac OS specific code before wxExecute (src/base_wx/MyExternalCmdExecDialog.cpp, line 206ff). Maybe that interferes with some changes to wxWidgets lateley?

What wxWidgets version are you using?

There is a bug with wxExecute on MacOS X with wxWidgets 3.1.3, which was already fixed after the release of 3.1.3.

See http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/18552

Maybe this is related to your problem?

so we need now a RC3 with your latest changes? Or are there other open points which needs to be fixed before?

I have tested the raw import as well and couldn't find any other issue.
