[Ifeffit] Issue with Compatibility between versions of Athena

[Bruce Ravel]

Hi Nirala,

"Backwards compatible project file" means backwards compatible with 
earlier versions in the 0.9 series of Athena.

I have said many many times -- on this list and in the documentation -- 
that I no longer support the older versions of my software.  That a 
project file from a recent version of Athena can even be opened in a 
version of Athena from almost a decade ago is a fine thing -- perhaps 
even something one might be thankful for -- but is not something I 
intend to support.

Has your colleague considered using a version of Athena that was 
released in this decade?
