[Bf-committers] Advertised new feature not working at all?

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi Roland,

Luckily the bug was in the docs. :)
When I wrote the log I recall a vague itching feeling I should check  
that sentence... the log said that Blender would find itself the  
matching Armature to apply the NLA strip Action on, which is of course  
not very handy... you also want to animate multiple targets within a  
Group.

So; just fill in the name of the Armature target in the (Nkey) strip  
Properties panel. :)
The release page has been fixed for it.

Thanks,

-Ton-
