It seems to me that as long as restore can detect what format the dump file is in, it shouldn't matter what the default dump format is, right? If someone makes a new dump in the new format, they'll presumably also be restoring with the new code that supports that format as well. I'm having a hard time imagining a situation where moving to a new fully-supported default dump format would break anything. jamie. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJO7lJtAAoJEO00zqvie6q8uB4P/2n1zoWDtWudB67OOgSU05dl ZFkXkuQFGZKGC3NXJrFH4931i0UkvsTcFI22FuU3yoyU+ryAVhw+Sd+jeA1mPrT1 5c0U19R8XQBFAOpR+O4HlIkT0inIC38v6QPicLHJJOyKKzYADJCjoeWZRdipZW5l c3T23Pd2kIGtbMVQl1O7nQYiswbbGNzixZkweNdOOXD7RGKXIMABg/DKPTanMfhE 5tEZx8lMlk6z2B1esDVWJmArevjtzhbzztrjc3FAfmzuPSUNurFe3FODIpwnSVRO /vGIJbz1HRwLdzwx4CCwlN6Q5HiL0k3O9q7nZ5EzYgkIWZsSIX37DIoAVSYllKJx pthji28gaJxMSjUHI4B7yJDEBRbFVnIsp6AaV/4rqdsSp8bnlXR7dbVkIO+OCOiW X0FHARUExkeh7ZVTooQaGzMiygi1Dwc0Jas+ZpqnQut55Z15RO6H6vJ4T1PfwjrQ sb3iA838L7MEDSkKHbZwFDo4WMWCH1eRjq1PfBqoKme05gtz4L13ldS2L4RdhVMT tgOlFTA4RmrNtjguUnM0Wq0H09EjaRSYWJWRha7EWUsdaB43kI7yN60LKlRj82/P uCXyyx+Sr1RYpWtAsTctBV1rpuBy1vfT2uuGNaK4PqfAdMgW/IYXZVFZeF1+Vui5 f39KJKq3joBqFDlyCvf5 =g/rP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
