The major number increased with each binary incompatibility. There have been quite some changes to reactors and call processing, but the differences are not as big as the version numbers would suggest. If you need new features, but want stability and implementation completeness, you should try the old-surface-core-1.1 branch. For fixes not in 1.0.1, but in the main branch, I can move them over. -- Best regards, Denis Oliver Kropp .------------------------------------------. | DirectFB - Hardware accelerated graphics | | http://www.directfb.org/ | "------------------------------------------" _______________________________________________ directfb-dev mailing list directfb-dev@directfb.org http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-dev
