<div dir="ltr">Hi Dave,<div><br></div><div>If master becomes 8.2, would it be possible for the current release branch to be tagged/released as 8.1.2?</div><div><br></div><div>The big thing that the release branch has, but that master doesn't, is the old OpenGL backend. I still find the old backend useful for projects that have to run in environments that don't support OpenGL 3.2.</div><div><br></div><div> - David </div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Tue, Sep 25, 2018 at 4:16 PM David E DeMarle <<a href="mailto:dave.demarle@kitware.com">dave.demarle@kitware.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hey Gang,<div><br></div><div>I'd like to change the VTK version number in master from 9.0.0 to 8.2.0.
