VNET 5

[Thomas Flemming]

Yes, I'm also not very excited about having a new database-format.
At least read-only the old format should stay readable.

But what is the advantage? Why upgrading to 5?
I'm thinking of just staying at 4.9 to avoid this migration-struggle, but this 
will cut me off from further development...

Cheers
Tom
