And I've now added a fourth proposal, in my opinion more logical: just bump the major version since there is an API break (and a major one). GtkSourceView based on GTK+ 4.0 (stable) will happen only in 2 or 3 years. Changing the GtkSourceView namespace will happen this development cycle. So it would be great if existing applications are able to use the new namespace while still using GTK+ 3. It would be one less thing to care about when porting an application to GTK+ 4.0. Also, between March 2017 and GTK+ 4.0, new apps or new libraries can be developed, depending on GtkSourceView. So when writing that new code, it would be better to use the new namespace. Another thing, for us, backporting commits would be easier with the same namespace. -- Sébastien _______________________________________________ gnome-devtools mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-devtools
