Finding resources to do it is probably the challenge here. > When you say "two snapshot formats," do you mean two formats that are > completely different, or two formats that are identical but for one or > two newly-added features? Two nearly identical snapshot. Yes versioning here simply means that something is changed which affects snapshot generation.
