Yes we do need to release 2.0. There are a few major differences between version 1.2 and 2.0.
* Some of the line spacing is a little bit taller. * There's a different method to call tabs * The new method to call tabs requires HTML that is not allowed in wiki markup. I did finally figure out the best use of the obcache to change the content of the page to allow the mark up if you switch the feature on.
v2.0 would definitely not be backwards compatible with v1.2 in wiki markup if someone is using tabs. Any pages that use tabs would definitely have to change their mark up and actually the way they display is a little different too.
v2.0 is actually downloaded from the development branch with version 1.2 on the master branch. All that needs to be done would be create a v1.2 branch for patches (if desired), make the final fixes for obcache and then merge development into master and release.

Heiya,
this is probably a question directly for Tom. :)
What about the 2.0.0 release? Officially the latest release is 1.2.0 but in the meantime more and more wikis are running master of Foreground which is 2.0.0 and soon there will be more of them than for the official release (stats by WikiApiary).
I guess it will be cool to get 2.0.0 officially off the ground.
