This is fair enough, and a reasonable goal - but wouldn't it be easier in the long run if the relevant chunks of db were pulled into Evo's source tree? It's going to get more and more unmaintainable as time goes by, otherwise. I must admit I haven't looked at the license, so this may not be possible. In practical terms, you say that file formats "change sometimes". Do we know for certain if this occurred between 3.1.17 and 4.0.14?
