I really hope that 2.0 ends up being more reliable than 1.3. These 1.99's are awful (besides which they break my automatic new version fetch build & install script). I have a question: is this 1.99 series like isotretinoin, which makes the acne get worse before it's cured (as in all the pimples come to the surface while they exit the body), or is this more like alcohol, making one feel ever-so-temporarily better before getting direly ill & sick & leading a path towards much hastened demise? I'm trying to say it politely: are experiments being done in 1.99 (aka pre2.0)?
This is the kind of talk and approach to bug reporting that tends to cause developers to simply ignore you.
