Hi Willem,

The bottom line is that, in the longer term, one needs to start making
provision for equipment that does not log at regular intervals. Yes,
its painful to provide for a flexible system, but that is the price to
pay to support a wide array of hardware and users. And this is what
sets meritorious open source systems (such as divelogs.de) separate
from vendor-provided software which does not have the adaptability to
store information from the diverse hard gear systems that a single
diver uses. As technical diving (equipment and training) becomes more
and more accessible, this need for diversity will only increase in future.
I hear you and you are right.
I will need to cope with getting irregular samples at some point. The
way I plan to deal with it, is to insert dummy samples, for this
information is not wrong and easier to implement than saving the
timestamp with the depth for each and every sample. As long as the
diving computer has a fixed time interval where it records "something" I
will be fine (ex. every x seconds). If that changes, I have a lot of
work :-)
kind regards,
Rainer
