DriveSmart Database "Update"

[BBQKing]

It appears there is a little life in the DS Team website. Checked (as I do) on their support section of the website, and the DS database now has an 010607 version available. Is this a "proper" update, or just a previous version given a new name?

I don't know if there's really any way to tell.

I had sent some updates to the DS team ages ago, I took quite a bit of trouble to collect the data for them too, making special trips to record the positions of cameras. I was told they'd be added to the next update but several "updates" later they were still not there.

The cameras in question are all on the PGPSWorld database, all correctly identified as Truvelos and with correct speed limits. Also an even earlier submission I made to DS (which they ignored) is on the PGPSWorld database.

So, in summary, I think DS "updates" should be treated with suspicion and that the PGPSWorld one is likely to be much more reliable.
