This is the first version in the new 2.7 development series. Please
notice that this series is called "development" and not "stable"

different 2.7.x series versions. Rest assured however that these
potentially incompatible changes are made in order to evolve the

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. There are currently no
known issues with the stability of the programs using this version.

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.
