In an earlier draft (which I lost) I specifically mentioned KDE 4.0.
I don't follow KDE development, but some of the justification I read
was that it was meant to be a stable base to develop for, and then KDE
4.2 came out not too long after. That's exactly what I'm aiming for.
Ok, yes, agreed in that sense. However, there was a bit of noise in
people expecting "KDE 4.0" to be generally useable, comparable to KDE
3.5 before it, but it wasn't. In many ways, it was very much a work-in-
progress release for KDE 4.2. I don't think Allegro 5.0 should be a
work-in-progress release for 5.2, but should rather be something that
people can use reliably.
Of course, there's a difference between developing a desktop window
manager and a multi-media library geared to writing computer games.
I just found the thread. It was your plan ;-) and the plan was to use
TLS to hide multiple mouse support in the common case. I think it's
one
of those things we can leave planned but unimplemented.
I know I pushed for it, because there seemed to be some interest in
it, and it was one of those things where it would be good to have the
internals in a state where it could be added in without having to do a
complete overhaul.
Anyway, seems fair to me.
