Review Comment:
   After a colleague and I looked at this again, I think we can make it even 
more clear:
   
   > Current library versions can read serialized images of sketches from older 
library versions within a language. The current version of a serialized image 
is compatible across languages with the caveat that a new sketch may be 
introduced in one language before being ported to others. Sketches requiring 
user-written custom serialize/deserialize code rely on users to port that 
custom code themselves for cross-language compatibility.
