New tabular inset in 1.1.6cvs

2000-10-22 Thread Alvaro Tejero Cantero

Hello,

The new tabular inset format produces tables that cannot be read with 
=1.1.4. (I didn't test with 1.1.5). Is that going to be fixed?

No.

You have to break some eggs to make an omelette.  And a very yummy
omelette it is too.

We don't guarantee upward-compatibility only backward-compatibility.
Or vice versa depending on your perspective.

Anyway.  It's not broken.  The format has changed that's all.
This is deliberate.  We have never guaranteed that the LyX format will
never change.  We have however guaranteed that your old files will be read
by a newer version (up to a point -- then you need an intermediate version
to convert really old files to a newer format).

Yes. Perhaps I was too concise. I simply wanted to know, I was not 
criticizing the policy (to which indeed I agree!). So excuse me if my 
message sounded harsh.

Best,
