I noticed this too and was going to take a look but I don't fully understand 
the underworkings of the MPQ or what exactly has changed - does anyone know of 
some documentation on what the changes are and how they're reflected in the MPQ?

There is no documentation. Need some reverse engeeniring. From what I can see, 
there are not so much changes. I think we need to wait for HotS release before 
do that, cause I'm pretty sure format will change again after release.

I personally don't think there will be any more changes after HoTS. From the 
looks of it the only major change to the replay format (from reading around on 
other sites) is that they changed the requirements of observers to be players 
(so arbitrary number of observers) and perhaps some under-the-hood hooks for 
resume from replay.

I'm going to take another look into it again tonight and see what I can figure 
out.

Is anyone thinking about fixing this parser now that HotS is out? Could really 
use it for my upcoming sc2 team league. I only need player names, race, and map 
to be parsed.

I took a look as best I could and even tried comparing logic to sc2reader 
(python), but couldn't fully understand what exactly is going on in most cases. 
It looks like the only problem that really arises is there's a change in the 
SC2Replay, and instead of map being in position 2 of the details array it's 
seemingly nowhere now? And a few other minor changes to the observer parsing. 
Unfortunately it's just too low-level for me to do and this project looks like 
it might be dead :'(
