Well I know Persian music very well, and the tuning as-is is perfect, so I'm not sure what we are talking about here. Persian music doesn't "raise by commas". There are no "different tunings", there is the current MIDI tuning which is correct and anything different is wrong.
It's working fine now, nothing is broken that needs to be fixed?? As far as I'm concerned the problem of upgrading persian.ly to 2.22 is solved.
