I think I don't like the idea of having separate directories because
later on if you want to change something you always have to look out to
change it in all the places. On the other hand, keeping one set of maps
may also lead to very complex code with multiple instances of the same
thing. So, I'm not quite sure which way to go.

Completely true. The problem with such a compatibility layer is that it
raises false hopes that your software works with the new code if you
just change a tiny bit.

Thanks, Jan, Niko, for all the work.

Jan, why do you think you don't have permission to commit to trunk? I
wouldn't say that is true.
