Hi,

in the process of updating Squeakland etoys to load in 5.1,we have also
made the sexp format project saving and loading work again. This might be a
VM independent way forward for storing projects.

Regarding loading old projects, Bert has an experimental OldSegmentLoader
that can load pre-Spur segments into 5.1

best,
Tim
