Hi Gildas,

Great to see work done on the Tab2Mage exporter. The original author has 
left for other tasks and the Tab2Mage code is currently without a 
maintainer but lives under the GPL2 license so it is free to modify and 
improve.

You can submit your patches to me and I make sure that they are 
committed to the repository. If you checked out the source from 
subversion then you can simply create a patch diff. Excerpt from 
http://base.thep.lu.se/wiki/DeveloperInformation:

... send an email to the developers list containing your log message and 
the output of svn diff (from the top of your Subversion working copy) ...

Send the patch to me.

For the new method usage we simply increase the BASE version requirement 
on the plug-in. I'll find out when the new method appeared in BASE. 
Changing the Tab2Mage plugin  will not affect already installed servers 
but rather new users of the Tab2Mage plugin. Of course, users wanting to 
use your new features must of course upgrade their BASE if it is obsolete.


Cheers,

Jari
