I wouldn't want to maintain differences spread through the V5 chapter - once pre-5.1 versions are no longer supported it's easier to drop the existing V4 section that to re-write the V5 section. There are folks out there with existing V4 realms that they need to connect to (as opposed to building a new V5 realm from scratch), and for that the existing V4 chapter could be kept untouched. -T -- How refreshing, the whinny of a packhorse unloaded of everything! - Zen saying
