Thanks. I think you'll need to re-vote for it to count though.
SourceForge set it up goofily.
There's one page describing candidates, and linked from there is a
different one to place votes on.

Re: voting: when you click "post" is it supposed to send you to a page that says you're logged in (what its actually doing), or is it supposed to show you the thread with your post (like this forum does)?
It finally went through (and did what I expected), but I had to go back and re-post it a dozen times before it "took".

Voted as well. I figure it's the least I can do for all the hard work you're putting into the editor!

I voted because, i tried to help, but instead realized what a hard & tedious job it is & to leave it to the pros, and support them.

After fussing with the hex in notepad all week, I think I've accounted for every variable-size chunk in the mystery bytes. Which means I'll soon teach the parser to navigate all the way to the end without crashing on something unexpected.
With all the amorphous mystery bytes promoted to stable greek structures, I can move on to basic editing.
One thing I'm dreading is having to revisit those system power sliders.
Other than that, I don't forsee any serious impediments to restoring pre-AE functionality.
The new stuff might be quirky. I'll wait for that to get mostly de-greeked.

Great! But please don't jinx it.
