Do you use any 
    a) boolean fields?
    b) byte fields that are indexed?

In both of these issues we have fix bugs for 2.4 betas

Take a point.

You have todo 2 main steps:

1) port you PROJECT and code to 2.3.
    this is point to start.
    with this you get code which can create NEW db in 2.x format
    fill and work with it.

    DOES THIS step have any problems?


2) when above is ready, you need do second step:

    convert EXISTED 1.x dbs to 2.x format,
    and MAY BE update their structure.
