Cinnamon 2.0 released

I totally agree. At the moment you can do *anything*. Which means that anything can break between releases. It would be nice to just offer a minimal set with a stable API, then if you divert from that, you can, but can break. This probably means someone going through the existing extensions and determine what things are needed. This would at least make things clear for extension developers.

It would be nice if we had a team focussing on the developer experience. Documentating APIs, ensuring it is nice to work with, etc. Seems that the developers always have other things to focus upon (new applications, Wayland, getting rid of fallback mode, etc). IMO such detail belongs to a different type of team. Meaning: spend 90% of time to make a nice interface, another 90% getting the details right ;)
