Re: Which version of Opera to use....

Hi all,

If you are asking about updating compatibility tables, Phistuck is right, we should not use the current forms to update data. The form should have a note about it. 

The reason is simple, we are about to deploy very soon a distinct system to update the data and also have ways to import and merge from various sources. 

We will, of course, allow to update data. Its just not deployed yet.
