We must keep in mind that I write these Robo City articles far in advance of their actual publication, because of slow production schedules for that magazine. Plus, as I recall, this article was doubly late, it being a post-post Dev Con summary. Because I wrote this many months ago, I certainly don't remember exactly what I was writing about in this paragraph, but I do remember someone of some credibility at the conference stating that things were going to break in the release beyond 1.4. If you've got a clue as to who might have been spreading a rumor like this, maybe we can spark my memory further. I vaguely remember some dispute/discussion about this, as to whether it would be called 1.5 or 2.0 or something else. John Foust
