Thank you Don for these clear and detailed explanations.
The release of the 6 alpha version was intended in particular to validate the package process, especially for Windows and MacOS.
Indeed, since January I'm on the sixth reinstallation of my system on my new machine following a defective SSD.
On this occasion I realized several things about Java. Until now I hadn't realized that Oracle's development policy was inevitably leading to an overall depreciation. The current platform and the planned evolutions (a new version every 6 months) will lead everyone to system manipulations often out of reach of those who are not interested in "mechanics". So I decided to temporarily abandon version 6 and to make version 5 evolve by integrating a lot of what I developed, like the scenario mode and the Markdown.
This being said, I'm going to modify the code of version 6 to make a new software that will be able to cohabit with version 5. Please note that I already plan to integrate in version 5 what will convert the file to the new specifications. For the implementation it will be enough, from the last version 5, to make an export of the database in XML format.
To all, please do not use version 6 alpha to replace version 5.
