Until we release 1.0, I allow myself to break the DB as often as I find it 
useful. It’s not really a matter of fun (my fontmatrix setup is 99% of the 
time not usable :/), just that we still are in the design moment.
That said, you’re totally right. I usually warn on IRC channel where I thought 
were all folks who play with the subversion repo and I put a *WARNING* in 
commit message. Next time i’ll make the effort of writing a mail to the list, 
sorry again.

You can grab the latest state of Fontmatrix supporting XML file database as of 
revision 734 or, because I’ve branched before changing the code so deeply , 
with:
svn co http://svn.gna.org/svn/undertype/branches/fontmatrix005
And, because even the files scheme has changed, running this branch should get 
your setup back.

Might be the place to detail the new scheme then.

Application settings are still in:
$HOME/.config/Undertype/fontmatrix.conf

Application resources (sample texts, etc.) are in:
$HOME/.Fontmatrix/Resource.xml

Default database* is an sqlite3 DB in:
$HOME/.Fontmatrix/Data.sql

Activation directory is:
$HOME/.Fontmatrix/Activated/

*It can be set in config file. It can theoretically be something else than a 
sqlite3 DB (see [1]) (though others do not work well yet).
