That sounds appropriate to me - I can see no evidence of any progress on
this in the last year. The upstream ticket has just been repeated
repegged onto later and later milestones.
The last wx 2.8 release (2.8.12) was 4.5 years ago (to the day!) while
wx 3.0 is approaching 2 years old. It doesn't seem an unrealistic
expectation to expect upstreams to support it by now.
Upstream don't even seem to have looked at my patch to improve wx3
compatibility while maintaining support for wx2.8, which would at least
be a first step towards getting this to work, and give some indication
that they actually care.
Cheers,
