Description Uwe Hermann 2015-08-30 20:02:22 CEST 
Step one should be to rename SR_DF_ANALOG to SR_DF_ANALOG_OLD in all drivers and rename the new/official SR_DF_ANALOG2 to SR_DF_ANALOG (which should be the only frontend-visible name).

Then, add a converter that takes any SR_DF_ANALOG_OLD from drivers and autoconverts it to SR_DF_ANALOG.

Then, existing frontends should be converted to (only) support the new SR_DF_ANALOG format.

Over time, all drivers should be converted to not output SR_DF_ANALOG_OLD anymore, but rather SR_DF_ANALOG (properly, i.e. by actually using the advantages of the new format).

When all drivers are converted, the simple converter function in the backend will be dropped.
