AFTER it stabilized (PC-DOS 3.20 720K and 3.30 1.4M), it remained
relatively stable.

But 2.11 was BEFORE it stabilized, and there were several different,
mutually incompatible 720K formats (there were also some CP/M
3.5" formats)
http://www.xenosoft.com/fmts.html#3.5 (some CP/M and a bunch of
different MS-DOS 3.5" formats)
