Default Re: New X-Cart add-on: X-Survey

But will it really only be available for xcart 4.1.3 and above? Why is this?
Why shouldn't new development only be for the new branch? Why should the developers waste their time on backwards compatibility? DO you know how much of WinXP is code so that programs written in 1996 can still run? I have read that as much as 60% of the OS is dedicated to legacy. That's Millions of lines of code...

I applaud X-cart for making this call... the sooner a critical mass adopts the new codebase, the sooner we will look at 4.0 as "legacy"
