    We have decided that 1.1.x will contain only bugfixes, no new APIs or
features, otherwise it will make a mess. I'm sorry.

    As I've proposed in IRC earlier, let it be called not stable release
but alpha testing version (which it is really still I suppose) so you can
just tell in its INSTALL file that it should be built together with GIT
version of libfm. What is bad with that? I hope that libfm-1.2 will be
ready for beta release (i.e. with frozen API) somewhere near summer then
you can make it beta release based on published version of libfm at that
time as well. Just have the Qt port alpha for testing until then. Is that
acceptable for you?

    BTW, 1.2.x is backward compatible with 1.0.x and 1.1.x versions and
therefore users can build libfm from GIT to test Qt port and it will not
conflict with Gtk version of pcmanfm, in any case.

>Thank you.

    Thank you too.

    Andriy.
