Hi, So if I understand correctly, then the note "wintertime and I have both hit places where the 0.10.x compatibility code is impeding progress, so it is time to drop support for the 0.10 format save games and protocol..." is basically just about FreeCol not being able to upgrade savegames from 0.10.x and older, but this still works for 0.11.x -> 0.12.x (which will come in the future) ? If that's the case, then I misunderstood the whole thing. Sorry. :) Fiisch
