  34 <PRE>&gt;<i>Hello there,
  35 </I>&gt;<i>I'm having a look at other services for irc (not that I'm not happy with
  36 </I>&gt;<i>ircservices, but world is beautiful because it's various, isn't it? :),
  37 </I>&gt;<i>
  38 </I>&gt;<i>and I came across with epona, which I would like to try in an
  39 </I>&gt;<i>already-set environment, such as the one I have now with ircservices.
  40 </I>&gt;<i>The problem is that I need the ircservices-4.4 compatbile databases ..
  41 </I>&gt;<i>is there a way to convert 4.5.38 databases to 4.4? If I try to run
  42 </I>&gt;<i>services 4.4 with my current databases, it complains about a different
  43 </I>&gt;<i>version of the files, and it won't try to load anyway, not even if i
  44 </I>&gt;<i>provide the -forceload option.
  45 </I>&gt;<i>
  46 </I>&gt;<i>Could anyone give me any hints, please?
  47 </I>
  48      Sorry, it's not possible to downgrade to version 4.4; you should ask
  49 the author of Epona for conversion support for version 4.5 databases.
  50 (Version 5.0 will include an XML export function, which should make things
  51 like this easier if other program authors adopt it as well.)
  52
  53 &gt;<i>PS: looks like epona is a copy of ircservices with some stuff added!
  54 </I>
  55      Yup, I'm aware of it.  The author has some not-very-complimentary
  56 comments in his change log, so I'm not very fond of it, but it has provided
  57 some useful insights, as have many of the other Services variants out there
  58 (hooray for open source!).
