We've got a little bit more work to do on the 2.0 library yet, it's still a beta version. We've tested it quite a bit, but I wouldn't bake it into anything just yet.
I know it's been a long time, but we are trying to get back to one designer code base and absolutely everything open-sourced, all based on OpenJDK, so there's no question of proprietary software anywhere. We are nearly there now, and the 2.1 beta is in the hands of our tester.
The main changes wil be once out:
* IoAbstraction finally separates out the platform properly, the conditional code depending on platform is now in platform specifc files, making new boards and platforms much easier to support.
* Much more control over how to draw, the colours, the fonts, even grid layouts are available, and even touch screens.
* The one we are discussing here, the new Drawable interface is purely concerned with how to draw, and not any menu logic, so it's easy to modify or write your own for special cases. The height should even be configurable.
