FYI, this plan might not be relevant anymore:
I've fixed WOT to be backwards compatible to clients which use the old API.
See [1].
Or in other words: This plan was a result of WOT not having been backards-
compatible to existing plugins, which I did just fix.

This is not true. I have offered to deal with both official plugins and 
inofficial 
ones. But the compatibility fixes are not needed anymore anyway since I've just 
made WOT backwards compatible :)

Purge-db4o itself breaks all plugins, because toad has changed the fred 
callback interfaces.
Did anyone sort out which ones have been fixed by volunteers yet? Because I 
likely should deal with the others.
