Ha ha. No. I used FLTK2 for over a year on a daily base, and I like it. 
However, FLTK1 has some very nice new features now.

Yes, that would be awesome. Four things are essential for this work or it will 
be obsolete:

1: the resulting FLTK3 must be independent, but provide a near perfect wrapper 
to FLTK1 and FLTK2

2: new FLKT3 code can be added to existing FLKT1 and FLKT2 projects

3: it should be modern and include all features from FLTK1 and FLTK2

4: it has to be dome very quickly, or the old libraries will start changing 
again

If all that is put together, I hope that all FLTK1 and FLTK2 users can jump to 
FLTK3 soon.
