It's neither a strength (there are definitely tons of things to do) but nor is it much of a weakness because the development is quite active pretty much all the time (just look at the commit history, PR merge rate or whatever).

The main problem with 3.2.0 is that, due to our commitment to ABI compatibility for even-numbered releases, we really want to cram as many new APIs into it as possible and this keeps pushing it further and further away. If nothing catastrophic happens, it should finally be released this autumn, whether we manage to finish all the planned features (see https://trac.wxwidgets.org/wiki/Roadmap) or not, but in the meanwhile you really shouldn't hesitate to use 3.1.x, the only unstable part of it is the ABI (_not_ API).

Nice chess GUI, BTW! (although I admit that I spend what little time I have for chess exclusively on Lichess nowadays).

Thank you for the incredible effort you have put into wxWidgets over many years. If you go to Help > Credits you will see you get a credit within the Tarrasch program. Yes, you are right, Lichess is fabulous. There are still some things I much prefer to do in Tarrasch though :-)
