Is there any good reason whatsoever to continue to keep the "plugin API" around? It's a pain to maintain it.


I don't see any. IMO the official plugins should use the new API now.
Shall we turn on the switch in config.nmake in the repository for the 0.10.9?

IF there are no problems with new API, we can think of getting rid of the old API. Then plugins will have to use the new api and we will also have to build libethereal.dll on windows. IMO the minor version of ethereal should be increased with these changes.
