Some good news and some perhaps not so good news for you...
The first beta release of version 2.2.6 is now available. I believe it fixes the reported bugs and problems with 2.2.5 and it also includes a number of relatively obscure changes to deal with special situations that some of you have requested. These changes are described in the first post to this thread, and also in the online wiki.
I have tested this quite thoroughly, but it is certainly possible that there are new bugs...
The not-so-good news is that I am going on vacation tomorrow and will not be back until mid September, when - for a while - I will have only limited time to deal with this hack.
So, if anyone finds anything serious with 2.2.6 beta 1, it would be a good idea to tell me today, ideally before bed time
