Ok, I understand that life cycle. But I cannot convince anybody to update there 1.2.x installations to 1.4.x. So I must now decide if I have to provide a DLL compile with the 1.2.x header and libs and an additional DLL compiled with the 1.4.x header and libs. I don't think about the development branches (1.3.x). Sorry, if this additional question is annoying. But unfortunately I did not get the answer from your mail. I'm sure this would be my fault.
