I haven't tried it because I don't use FlashFiler, but it should be really
simple to create D2005 and D2006 FlashFiler packages. I created the D2005
and D2006 Apro, Orpheus, SysTools, and B-Tree Filer packages that are now
available on SourceForge, and there really wasn't much to it.

Start by making copies of the D7 runtime and design time packages, and
rename them appropriately. The D7 runtime package will have _r70 in its
name, and the design time package will have _d70 in its name. For the new
runtime packages, change the _r70 to _r90 for D2005 and _r100 for D2006.
For the design time packages, change the _d70 to _d90 for D2005 and _d100
for D2006. Then change the Requires clause in the design time packages to
refer to the new D2005/D2006 runtime packages instead of the old D7 runtime
package.

Then check the ffdefine.inc file for any references to ver150. Add
appropriate references to ver170 for D2005 and ver180 for D2006.

That should be all there is to it.
