#72Earlier quoted context omitted.
The app's name is iTerm2. Version numbers have to increase lexicographically, so the version 3 beta is called 2.9. I'm open to suggestions :)
In SemVer [1], it's prescribed that the first number is for breaking changes, the second number for new features, and the third number for fixes. So this would be v3.0.0. It also allows you to add a suffix though for beta-type versions, so the beta would be v3.0.0-beta, or v3.0.0-rc1, etc. [1] http://semver.org/
Versions are supposed to convey meaning over how much has changed to the app between two versions. iTerm got soooooo many new features in this new version, anything smaller than a major bump would feel out of place.
I do agree the actual version should be v3.0.0-beta1 tho ^^.

#75(author here). I pushed out a promotion today to let users know about the new version before auto-updating everyone. It breaks backward compatibility with applescript, so it'll be a rough upgrade for some folks. I'd love to hear any thoughts on how to make this less painful.

You know iTerm is a tool I use so often that I've taken its existence for granted. Thank you for all your hard work over the years. You've made a beautiful piece of software.

#78I'm sure I'm missing iTerm2's big appeal, but every time I try to use it, I find myself going back to Terminal.app, which I find more responsive and just as featureful, especially when combined with zsh and a windowing manager. That's probably just because I'm familiar with it and I didn't come from tmux or anything similar, but I keep hoping I'll be "enlightened" at some point and realize the error of my ways ;)

#79I love iTerm2, I keep up with the "current" beta versions, using them all day in production. I would love it if they'd make a "dark" titlebar version of the window chrome. My setup currently has windows without any titlebar at all (thanks to iTerm for that feature!), but it makes rearranging windows challenging. I look forward to trying out the newer features!
Thanks so much for pointing out the ability to hide the titlebar entirely, as I have the same pet peeve :) I would suggest using one of the many pseudo tiling window managers to resize your windows so you don't have that problem. I strongly recommend spectacle [1] [1] https://www.spectacleapp.com/
