[Scummvm-devel] ATTN Porters: Switching to SDL2?

[Filippos Karapetis]

I can also confirm that the SDL2 backend has been working flawlessly under
Windows + Visual Studio 2012 and 2013. I have been using it for the past
year with this setup.

I fully agree that switching to SDL2 is a good call, and a much expected
change. Our backend code has already been adapted to work with it,
plus SDL1 is deprecated in a lot of platforms.

Regards
