Actually, 1.3.5 is exactly what I _don't_ want. I want a release branch
which is stable. That means that the only updates are bug-fixes. 1.3 is
a development branch, which means that while bugs are fixed, new features
are constantly being added alongside the fixes, resulting in a net increase
not decrease in bugs. This is a natural part of the development process,
and will not go away unless you focus on producing a stable release.
Sorry, I don't mean to be whingy or belligerent. I just think you guys
have a quality product to offer here, but you are shooting yourselves in
your collective feet by making it too hard for non-developers to use.
