That's interesting. The developers have said there were breaking schema
changes which weren't going to be brought forward with mythweb (since
no-one has stepped forward to do that work). Glad it's still working now,
though, and maybe the changes won't be so big to make mythweb work
"properly" with 0.28 (if it's still needed/desired).
