1.3.0 will go final Sunday unless there is a major show-stopper. There will be two last patches for the final version regarding the FL_EXPORT macro and a flag in the native file chooser that was not set correctly. All further versions in the 1.3 branch will then be binary compatible to 1.3.0. Adding functions is no problem, but adding variables in a class is no longer possible. Personally, I would limit 1.3.x releases for major bug fixes only. As Ian said, we need to decide then if we want to continue with 1.4 or 3.0 (or possibly both). What we already decided is, that we need a *much* shorter release cycle with less new features, but well tested.
