hm, not sure I get this, I was only referring about guessing wether or not
it explicitly said anywhere...

Well, if you're explicitly referring to a Pd version, I think you should
keep track and have all features ported or at least have the missing ones
mapped and clearly pointed out somewhere as "to do". Otherwise, you might
say it "roughly" compares to a given version, like your issue mentions (and
maybe be more specific to what that means: "things might be missing, so if
you see something, say something). I think it'd be better if you kept
track, but I know it requires a significant amount of work and help. I'd
love to help too, if possible, but unfortunately I've been too busy with
externals development - maybe sometime.

cheers
