Re: Version GtkDatabox-0.9.1.0 released, new maintainer, RFC

[Jim George <jimgeorge gmail com>]

Hi Brian,
Thanks for taking up ownership of the project. My only comment about
going to version 1.0 is that the API should be stable. I understand
that pre-1.0 software is allowed to do this, but hopefully, once the
API is frozen at 1.0, the next major API change would only occur at
2.0. My 2 cents.
Thanks
-Jim
