We need to know which set to keep around. I would hope that it's as above, as there's much less to keep around then. (The net needs to know too.) Yes, all future diffs will be relative to any previous diff posted by me or Matt. No need to keep a 2.0 around anymore, but do keep a vanilla copy of whatever was sent out most recently in case you make local mods. (diff3 is a wonderful tool for handling this.)
