Is there an ETA for V4?

Heya, so I'm in the middle of rewriting large system which integrates EnTT, and the new custom STL container support will actually be incredibly beneficial for us.

If 4.0 is only a month or so away we can focus on other parts of the codebase while waiting for the new release, but if it's looking like several months before 4.0 releases we'll probably just bite the bullet and work on rewriting our ECS library right now with the current release single header, and then swap to the full header structure later to integrate custom STL support.

As always, thank you for your work on EnTT and we'll be looking forward to the new release regardless of how long it takes!

Hello 🙂 I actually didn't have an ETA in mind, and I've been having a family issue lately that's been taking up my time, so I'm having trouble making progress quickly.
In any case, the two main features that were supposed to be there are almost ready. That is, the external STL work and meta support for overloaded types.
I think I'll be able to create a release in June, assuming I don't run into any extra issues in the real life.

That said, in general you can use main and it shouldn't change much, especially regarding the STL injection part.
If you want to start using the upcoming version right away, link the latest hash and go with it. I don't think there will be any major changes.
Currently, only the overloaded types feature in meta may change the API. The rest of the codebase should be frozen on that part.

Feel free to reach out if you need more details or any help. If I'm late in responding, you can also find me on Discord or by email. It's easy for me to miss notifications these days, and I apologize in advance for that. 🙏
