It is a non sequitur to say that developing a new major version should not
be allowed because some users are still on the previous stable version.

It is equally irrelevant to completely omit the fact that the current
stable version is now LTS and seeing more and more applications, DEs, etc
moving across to it.

Having a separate bleeding-edge development branch is a precondition for
having a really stable one, and now that exists. So, that problem was
solved. Yet apparently, somehow there are those who want to construe the
solution as a problem in itself...

And as always, just complaining about the development means very little
when so few of the complainers ever contribute any resources to improve the
state of things. If you want to change the focus of "those who are
developing GTK", become one.


That's all kinda separate from the original topic, which I still think
should just be reverted until it's done properly, but anyway.
