There's some discussion of this in this thread: http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=30AAAA5B65A3A20 Here's one of David's comments, from the 6th of January: Yes, this is a good question. v1.4 apps won't be automatically converted or editable in the new interface for a few technical reasons. However, converting is something lots and lots of folks will want to do. We are aware of this and plan to provide an interface to allow this conversion. Be aware that if you have distributed any 1.4 apps (App Store, Cidia, etc) that those will need to be recompiled and updated in whatever app store they are in. Also, the initial release will not support Android so think hard before converting a v1.4 app to the newer release. And on the 12th in the same thread, he said What we were thinking is... when you convert an exisitng 1.4 app to 1.5, you won't be replacing it, you'll be making a new one. So, your control panel would show two apps, one 1.4 and one 1.5. This will allow you to leave the Android version alone and it will still function. Then, you could spruce up the iOS version or simply leave it looking the same but running the latest release with it's performacne improvements, etc.
