Hi all, Now that we have branched for release, can we now *finally* switch trunk to require C++11?
I know this is exciting and useful stuff, but since we branched for release it would really be nice if people would focus on the remaining issues we have for 0.91. You talk about losing patience, and it would really be nice if you understood how quickly our users will lose patience with Inkscape if we keep breaking features and accumulating regression bugs on things that used to work. I'm not saying C++11 is a low priority. However, releasing a minimally broken new stable release (the first in over FOUR years) should probably be worthy of more attention than trunk for issues of this nature at this at this point (which is not a perspective I would have if things weren't in such bad shape).
