I have just created a new branch for version 2 beta. It targets the latest 
release of wxPython classic, 3.0.2.0. It was started on a base containing 
Werner’s Phoenix work, and as such has some work on both Phoenix and Python 3 
compatibility. However, neither of these have been tested. It is conceivable 
that support for both 3.x classic and Phoenix could be achieved, but I have not 
looked into this and it may become more difficult down the road depending on 
how far the projects split.

There are currently a few issues that I know about:

- dLinePlot is broken due to a bug in wxPython 3.0.2.0. A few calls in 
PlotCanvas’s __init__ method were changed from wx.CursorFromImage() to 
wx.Cursor(), which is causing dLinePlot to fail completely. The fix would be 
trivial and I thought about submitting it myself, but ultimately did not finish 
getting a development setup of wxPython to test and submit with. Either way, 
this bug exists in the 3.0.2.0 release, so will require a rebased wxPython to 
fix.

- Splash screens are causing apps to crash on OS X. I have disabled the splash 
screen in DaboDemo for OS X (hopefully temporarily). I assume splash screens 
are also broken on Linux as they were already disabled in the demo file. I 
traced the problem to a method being called on an object that doesn’t exist 
yet, apparently due to a callback being executed a little earlier than 
expected. However, I don’t have a fix at this time.

- dAutoComplete is exhibiting strange behavior and is nonfunctional on OS X. It 
is actually the base control that is broken, TextCtrlAutoComplete. However, I 
found some indications that it may have had issues on OS X dating back to 
earlier versions of wxPython as well. When I wrote the control originally I 
didn’t have access to OS X, so I have yet to test it with 2.8 to check this.

- ReportDesigner has strange behavior on Linux (openSUSE) and is nonfunctional.

This is only what I have discovered so far and is not comprehensive. However, 
overall the framework seems fairly stable. I have done a reasonable amount of 
testing myself trying to cover as much functionality as possible across several 
platforms, and I know John has been testing as well with positive results. 
Nevertheless, any additional testing and fixing (to the above problems or 
otherwise) is always appreciated.
