The files have been restored, so you can use both new and old method to source the environment.

The libraries are actually the same in both cases - I suggest you switch to the new environment as soon as possible. It's transparent to you and it will be very convenient when you want to go back to previous versions.

Current versions:    production (link to 1.0) and devel

Maurizio
