Re: Is ESP8266 for Arduino IDE dead ?

This is a problem you will never be able to solve in IT. With every new version there is a chance of breaking old software. Look at MickeySoft: macros that were working with the last version won't run in the current one; seen that often enough. Thats the cause why committed developers / companies supply various versions of there library, code whatever for different versions of the target sw.
With every new version of sdk, compiler etc. if you adapt to the latest version you have to decide if you put in effort to be backward compatible, not everyone may like to follow your update pace, or you might consider offering your examples for each version of arduino esp8266 core, even RCs until the final release.
no rant, attack, etc. just my thoughts
