Actually, the problem with the DR files becoming broken is due to the fact that I didn't know they had been written yet. :-( Since I hadn't seen a reference to them here, I didn't know they existed and therefore assumed I could safely change something without impacting anyone. Now that I know the DR files exist and other content has been added to the SW files by various users, I make sure not to change anything that others could rely upon. So it's *not* a complex issue - it was just one time due to a lack of awareness on my part. :-)
