I have no plans to make any more changes to the format. BTW, the change was announced by me in the changelog for 0.6.3 on debian-cd, on February 24: | Hello all, | | I have just released Jigsaw Download 0.6.3. jigdo is a scheme which | makes it possible to download Debian CD images from any regular Debian | FTP mirror, instead of getting them from one of the fewer and slower | CD image mirrors. | | What's new? | ~~~~~~~~~~~ | - jigdo-file make-template: Some loop unrolling, some other | optimizations, resulting in a speed increase of at least 30%! | - FORMAT CHANGE of template files: Template data now includes | RsyncSums - this will be useful in the future for aborting | downloads early and when upgrading images to newer versions. This | version still reads the old template format, but support for that | will be dropped before 1.0.0. There will be a file format change for .jigdo files, but it will be backwards-compatible - a "Template-MD5=..." line or similar in [Image] sections.
