I looked at the changes between 0.060 and 0.062 the last few days. There are
huge divergence in the 2 branches. The diff-file is about 1 MB. There is
definitely no possibility of automatic merging, for sure.

I don't really know which one is to be kept. The changes in the 0.062
UI/*.fl files are huge, too.

Can anyone tell me which of the above are to be kept, which to be removed?
Once I know that, I can try to help with some merging.

I think I would attack this from the angle of "what works best". Since
nobody knows the code very well anymore, I think there would be little
point in merging a new branch that introduces many bugs.

I don't know in what state Cal was in his coding, whether it was in the
middle of restructuring, or almost finished (does anyone know?), but I
think regardless I would put 0.062 through a lot of testing and choose
that branch only if it has no regressions. Or at least very few.
Otherwise we will just find ourselves with noone to fix them.
