How about this:

"Releases in the 2.7 series are considered development releases, and  
as such, each new release may contain significant new features or  
code changes which have not yet received thorough testing and/or may  
break ABI or API compatibility with previous releases. Therefore, we  
recommend that you keep this in mind if you are to base your software  
on a 2.7 release, and thoroughly test the parts of the wx library  
your application uses."

Regards,

Kevin
