Hi,

Please don't underestimate that aspect! At least from my POV there's
about no valid reason to create anything new in 2019 that's not
compatible with ProDOS.

With ProRWTS2 there's just no need anymore to tie anything to 5.25"
floppies. This only creates efforts for others to untie it from 5.25"
floppies at a later point in time...

Just my two cents,
Oliver
