Hi Jonathan, as none of the commiters working at Castor between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5.3 is active at Castor at the moment there is only very little help I can give you. The only things I can suggest to take a look at http://castor.codehaus.org/changelog.html about the changes and that you should simply try what happens if you upgrade. Maybe there is a chance to use a Custom- or GeneralFieldHandler to work with maps at 0.9.4 but I'm only guessing here.
