FYI: just added a hint to opt out of the new Spaces code. We’d like  
people to try it and report bugs, but still have an exit strategy if it  
totally doesn’t work for you, or you can’t handle a resizable window  
having a fullscreen button, etc.

–ryan.

There’s a couple of serious issues around CreateTexture and CreateTextureFromSurface on 2.01 which I’ve put into bugzilla. Would be nice to have those fixed.

Will this be fixed before 2.0.2?s release? I noticed 2.0.2 got tagged on Mercurial a few minutes ago…On Mar 3, 2014, at 1:31 PM, Ryan C. Gordon wrote:

This is a major breaking issue for me, so I?ve made a hacky quick-fix for myself which seems to work OK (after only a couple minutes of testing though.)

If anyone else is interested, it just adds one line - but it might not consider some scenarios.
