When I decided to learn web dev (coming from a native background), the lack of updates to Flask was more of a concern than the 0.11 version number. Everything I read online said that Flask was rock solid, so getting stuck with an abandoned framework in production was my main concern. Glad to see Flask's development is back on track, and under formal management!

Flask development has never not been on track, there have been plenty of commits and bug fixes in the last 3 years, theyve just never made a official release until now.

  I'm aware, but a web framework going 3 years without a release renders the distinction between "no releases" and "no development" more or less meaningless from an end user's point of view.

    Or it means the APIs are stable, and the feature set is sufficiently limited to avoid bloat.

      And new releases could be 0.10.2, 0.10.3, ..., with fixes included! And I'm ok with that from user point of view. But Flask package stuck with 0.10.1. Glad to see 0.11!
