This is why I raised this problem. The question was why would an older
version of any application meet the FORWARD compatibility specs, than the
current piece of software.
Why is 2.0.7 forward compatible and not 2.1.1. This to me, somehow defies
OOP methodologies. Should we log this as a bug or no.

Maybe I am shooting off the tangent -  what say you ?
