Dear Raphael,

I had a look at the changes between releases. The only change in
the pickle format is its extension to pickle failed values. The
other changes simply reflect the reorganization of the internal
class hierarchy of values, they do not affect the format itself.
I will give it a try soon (probably during the weekend). If it
works, I will commit it to the svn trunk, and ask people to test
it. If testing is successful, I will call for a minor release of
Mozart (1.4.1).
Thank you very much indeed! You are actually suggesting more than I
even hoped for :)
Best
Torsten

Yes, this is exactly what I am suggesting. I don't pretend that it
is possible for all former pickler versions. But I think that
backward compatibility with version 3#3 of the pickler (Mozart
1.3.x) is feasible.
This requires a careful review of the diff between both versions of
the pickler. This is not an easy task, since that part of Mozart
is quite low-level and a bit obscure (to me at least). And one
must make sure that the compatibility test only applies to pickles.
