 +===== File Format Version =====
 +
 +Determine whether any changes have been made to the .rg file format.  If so, decide the extent of those changes and what level of file format version update is required.  Update the file format version as appropriate.  See comments on FILE_FORMAT_VERSION_POINT in RosegardenDocument.cpp.

 +Changing the point version has no effect on anything as it is ignored.  Changing the minor version will cause an "incompatibilities" warning on load, but the file will be loaded.  Use this when data might be lost when opening a file with an older version of rg (e.g. new fields have been added).  Changing the major version will cause older versions of rg to refuse to load the file.  Obviously, we should avoid this at all costs.  The chances are good that we will never have to do this.
