Today's update seems to have dropped the variable gatso category, which I assume detail the HADECS cameras on the M42 and M25. Is this a delibrate change (I can't see any mention of it) or an error?

I think I just found the answer, they have all been moved to the uk_gatso_tba file. I assume this as expected?

I hope thats a mistake rather than intentional though as its going to mess up quite a few devices as the old category will still be on most devices - one for MaFt to answer when he is next on line - Mike

I just downloaded 2 minutes ago and:
1. there is no Gatso Var category at all
2. the Gatso 'tba' category only has 39 items in it, so the variables aren't in there...

My not very scientific check of 2 cameras (1 M25 round Heathrow and the other M42) shows them to be listed with an unknown speed and a ? icon. In the database I just downloaded the camera IDs are listed in the tba category too.

A check with POIedit shows that this week's Gatso TBA file contains all the cameras that were in last week's Gatso VAR file plus the one camera that was in last week's gatso TBA file.

The @0 bit that followed the camera number in the VAR file has gone.

The cameras show as TBA on the submission map rather than VAR.

Apologies guys, I just assumed there would be more than 39 "vars" and "tbas" in total.

It still MUST be a mistake though.... Anyone able to confirm?
