Dear Reinhard Meyer,

understand the "on disk format" will not change. Will it?
No its not changed. Only the format in RAM is changed to a hashed list. Therefore it would not matter how it is stored on external media since a "read" and "write" function is needed anyway.
You only need to change/rewrite those functions to store the environment in any fashion you like...
Please spell "compatibility".
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
