Thanks for the fork!

Are there any attempts to maintain protocol interoperability between synergy 1.x and barrier? I think the answer to this question should be mentioned in the README.

The short answer is "no". At the time Barrier was forked Synergy 1.x was legacy-ified and had more or less become abandonware. There was no reason to reason to invest in compatibility with a product that was dropped by its creators. Now that Symless has decided to return to 1.x as their stable branch I'm not sure how things will play out. I do like your suggestion that we cover this "officially" in the readme file, but let's wait to see what Symless does first.

Feel free to drop by the irc channel ( #barrier on freenode ) for things like this, @p12tic. We're nice people :D
