Are Legacy Test Profiles Sticking Around?

[gregash26]

I'm a big fan of the Legacy Flashcard SRS. I appreciate all the work put into creating the new learning system, but I'm going to be stuck in my ways for a while. Are there any plans to phase out the Legacy Test Profile, or can I stick with it with confidence?

No plans to phase it out - internally it's just a bunch of configuration files for our new flashcard system, there's not a bunch of awkward old code or whatever that we're eager to get rid of here; there are maybe 100 lines of code we added in support of flashcard features specific to Legacy that we don't offer anywhere else (mostly 'score-based subject selection' and the a few quirks of the formula it uses to scale intervals for early/late reviews) but that's pretty much it.
