XMLs are just readable dumps of yade memory and that things are supposed to change, there is no way to prevent that. Maintaining xml backwards-compatible would freeze all development. Sorry. Make your simulation in python. It shields you from internal details as it is more high-level, but still lets you go to the implementation detail level if you wish. The original question was about SQLiteRecorder databases, however. You pointed out very truly, though, that as old XML files are useless, quite the same old sqlite databases (with embedded XML) are useless; so if I add comporession, there is not much to lose...
