1) as I have hear in RB 5.5 even standard RB.

2) even no, then we can
    a) have different versions of plugin
    b) plugin self define if such API is needed and register it.

What you mean here?

Yes, Valentina 2.0 is so different from Valentina 1.x that there is no way
do automatic conversion of existed db files as we have had in Valentina 1.x
during all this years.

Do convert existed db we will use
A) XML dump
B) special utility that contains both engines.
    btw, most probably this can be Valentina Studio.
