For some reason, I can't join the openmeta google group to post a request, 
not sure why. But anyway great news to see Rob was on the case so promptly. 

The idea of having two plugins seems a bit awkward for us users. Because 
the OpenMeta and Mavericks tag is almost identical, having the new plugin 
set both in Mavericks means that those tags will be backwards tag 
compatible < 10.9 -- so if you dropbox sync your tagged files between a 
10.8 and 10.9 machine you can use openmeta on 10.8 and Mavericks on 10.9). 
This would seem to obviate the need for the user to "choose" which tagging 
mechanism they will employ.

It seems that Ironic software apps like Leap will auto convert all openmeta 
tags to Mavericks, as will Houdahspot. For anyone who wants to hack this 
manually, there is a shell script available to do so:

When you have tagged files scattered over many directories it would be nice 
to search by tag first, then convert, rather than do this by directory, I 
suspect the mechanisms to smart update openmeta tags will improve once 
Mavericks gets into the wild.

Thanks!
