It's not used by anything and was not intended to be released in that form (hey, everyone knows my view on this by now :-) The current libforms is completely imcompatible with what's currently in the tree so we'd have to have another major number bump as soon as I commit that. > Should we bump the version number _every_ time the interface is changed > or extended?

It's not clear how 2.0 packages work with > the current libg++ (gnuregexp was removed). I thought we agreed that it would get bunped *once* per release. -- Paul Richards, FreeBSD core team member.
