Given that the fix to brain behavior mentioned by Mike in the architecture hold will break some 1.6 holds, it may be a good idea to add a field to the "holds" forum listings that marks these holds on the download webpage - so that new players who only have 1.7 won't download them. It's a bit premature now, of course, but we'll need the time to go through the holds and see if we find necessary rooms that exploit the bug.

I believe that there's a field in the new hold files that will say which game version the hold was built under. In which case, we'd probably use that, and flag all current holds as something like 'Time of Smitemasters' or something actually witty, and 2.0 holds as something appropriate.

Or just use the game name, so DROD:AE, DROD:JTRH, etc. One of the two.

But yes, this needs doing. Schik!
