Unless TDF is going to adopt the absurd Chrome (and now Firefox) version
model, the next version should be 3.5.0 indeed. I guess we (Windows users)
will have to wait :)

I'm sure more Windows users would be available for serious testing if TDF
took the Windows users more seriously and in proportion to the platform
