-Releases in the 2.7 series are considered development releases,
-and as such, each new release may contain significant new
-features or code changes which have not yet received thorough
-testing and/or may break ABI or API compatibility with previous
-releases. Therefore, we recommend that you keep this in mind if
-you are to base your software on a 2.7 release, and thoroughly
-test the parts of the wx library your application uses.  Rest
-assured however that these potentially incompatible changes are
-made in order to evolve the toolkit to the next ABI stable
-release series (2.8.x) and that normally efforts are made to
-preserve compilation compatibility, so often moving to a new
-development release just requires a full recompile of the
-application using wxWidgets.
