The data format for Enterprise Edition is documented. However, to stop
people using Standard Ed with the sync servers (Scout, ASL etc) Puma
munged the format of the SE generated tables.
Creating extensions for SatForms works well if you stick somewhere near
the boundaries they hint at... unfortunately alot of extension work
involves "what happens if I do this...?" ;-)
I've written over 2 dozen extensions doing all sorts of wierd stuff -
mostly with great success.
