The people at KECK have told me they discussed it and have decided they 
no longer need the KTL support, quote: "We're all for simplifying it!"

So, one last time:

If you are using the pv layer for anything (other than as obligatory 
bridge to CA as required by previous sequencer versions), or if you 
think that there are other important reasons to keep it, this is your 
last chance to save it, otherwise it's going to pay its debt to nature.

Cheers
Ben
