Many scripts may have to I don't think so: if you need to do an incompatible change, do it as early as possible. If we break it now, people will need to change things for 1.2, but the devel version and the released version will act the same. In other words: each such change, done early, will remove one further source for incompatibility between gimp-1.2 and 1.3. This is valid when a) the change can be made before 1.2 (including required fixes) and b) gimp-1.2 will stay as long as 1.0 did. -- -----==- | ----==-- _ | ---==---(_)__ __ ____ __ Marc Lehmann +-- --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / pcg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx |e| -=====/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ XX11-RIPE --+ The choice of a GNU generation | |
