[DogParkList] MLDX v5 beta - stable now?

[David Ferrington, M0XDF]

All very good points Don, the backup via ADIF being a good one, I have  
a Time-Capsule, so I'm not concerned about recovery.
OK about Apple script syntax changes, not a problem, not being  
available for some tie is frustrating (as I'm sure it is for you), but  
I can live with that.

The issues of dates imported etc seems to have been addressed.
