The 2009.1 Perforce visual client tools are compatible with Perforce
Server releases 2005.2 through 2009.1.  To ensure that you have access
to new P4V features, install or upgrade to the 2009.1 Perforce Server,
because some P4V features are not available with older servers.  
Upgrading your Perforce Server to 2009.1 is a one-way migration.
Please refer to the P4/P4D Release Notes for further information.
