And those announcements clearly state that the WRP recommends against creating
new content for 2.1 as there will be no compatibility to 2.2? And ML talk is not
"visible" (mind the quotation marks!) to the masses IMHO, forums is where all
the action takes place.

The global announcement (http://forums.wz2100.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2950) has
a misleading subject (misleading only if you want to tell people to not create
new 2.1 content). And the whole topic doesn't even mention any incompatibilities
with 2.1, 2.1 isn't even mentioned at all.

As I cover new versions on my site as well I read all the release announcements
and I cannot remember _anything_ about the attitude of the WRP towards 2.1 and
new content for it.

Perhaps it is a good idea to explicitly state what's up with 2.1 with the
release of the next upgrade for 2.1. Actually this is a good point for releasing
another upgrade for 2.1 ;)

Thanks for reading,
