This means that if you a previous version of 1.5 (1.5.1) for all purposes you will not be able to work with that file if you use the new style as it will be converted to the default layout style. OTHO this is some kind of weak bondage in the sense that the files loads and you can work with it. The strong version would be that the previous version would not be able to load the version at all. We care, and the rules are clear, about the later case. I think that we can discuss things on a case to case scenario regarding the weak bondage. What do others think? I think that we should start adding this analysis to wiki to avoid having to think about every time one of this cases arrive. :-) -- José Abílio
