[L2Ork-dev] new alpha release of pd-l2ork

[Ivica Bukvic]

OK, new version is uploading now (git is already updated). This should
definitely address the text problem. I still need to figure out what is
wrong with the array object. Can you please check that has been fixed as
well or send me a patch that induces a crash? I do see still some
extraneous errors both from text and the array objects I will need to
investigate. Thank you.
