(0010587) Watermelon (developer) 2014-10-14 22:08	I believe demo's break between versions as protocols change. Could be wrong here. I also think Dusk made ZCinema to allow users to hook into other versions of zandronum to replay demos.

(0023433) Ru5tK1ng (updater) 2024-03-20 03:08	Simply the result of upgrading the codebase each major release. Perhaps when gzdoom parity is no longer required the demos will be stagnant.
