Huh.  It seems that I should upgrade to 2.0 ;)
Is there a stable release of that which I can download somewhere?  
Mnemosyne-proj only mentions current version 1.2.2.

Well, I doubt that I'll be writing my own plugins anytime soon; I'm not a 
"power-user" or programmer by any means.  And (keeping that in mind), I 
don't really know what you mean by unexpected consequences.  I thought that 
in Supermemo even as early as SM2 it was possible to modify your target 
rate of memorization (correct me if I'm wrong about that, I didn't really 
spend much time there).  I kinda thought that it wouldn't really be a 
difficult thing, just sort of "scaling up the graph" representing the 
intensity/frequency of reviews.

I thought of this because I have tests coming up.  It's not a major issue, 
and Mnemosyne is certainly not my only method of review, but I'm interested 
in hearing what I might have overlooked here.  If it's simply a programming 
hurdle then there's not much I can say, but from what you've said it 
doesn't sound like that's the case.
