JSP, I’m a bit disappointed for the short life-cycle of Sublime Text 2. I bought a licence for it when it was at the latest beta stages after I used it for a while. But I’m not willing to pay a licence every few months or every year. Giving access to 3 beta is good thing, but after going through the list of improvements some of them make more sense as a minor updates to the second version. Improved start-up time for example. Performance improvements are something users are expecting as fixes and updates. New functionality, major improvements of the architecture, internal structure or other major components of the software are valid reasons for releasing new major version of our products, not performance updates. No one knows how long will this beta stage continue, and how long we will receive “updates” for it.
I’m looking forward to read your thoughts and plans for the future Sublime Text.
