Hi all,

I noticed that Tryton is very strict in checking the version ot the client 
towards the server. This makes ist difficult for an *end user* to work with 
different Tryton versions, e.g. prior to an upgrade.

The way I know it from other products is that a certain server version 
requires at least the same version on the client side, but does not complain 
about a higher version number.

For example, you can connect with a SAP-GUI 7.4 to a SAP 4.6 system, but you 
have to have at least a 4.6 GUI

For Tryton, a 3.0 GUI does not connect to a Tryton-Server 2.8 :-(
Additionally, when you upgrade from 2.8 to a 3.0 client all your settings are 
gone (as they are saved in ~/.config/tryton/<version> )

I feel this is an unnecessary limitation. An up-to-date client should connect 
to an older server. (or we should have a full featured webclient to overcome 
this...)

What do you think?

Cheers
Axel
