I realise that Jelsoft are acting responsibly and I appreciate that.

However, something like this surely requires a patch not a whole new version?

Those of us with modified boards are starting to find this totally unworkable. When the next major major release comes out the only hack I am having on it is the arcade. I really, really, do not have four hours to spare every couple of weeks to keep upgrading like this. At one time a release would last six months or more. Now it's a major achievement if it lasts 48 hours!

Whatever the rights and wrongs of it, the fact remains a better system than this is going to have to be found, or else the modification community, already a shadow of what it was some years ago, will all but die.
