I keep reminding myself that this would be easier if we did the user manual 
changes as we change the features...

I think that's the most visible change and one that every user will notice 
immediately. We should talk about what it shows, what the different icons mean, 
how you use it to set a new dive site location.

No idea :-)

BT/BLE: nothing has changed there on Windows. For Mac and Linux I think we 
should say that BLE support is still actively worked on and that this has been 
tested on Heinrichs Weikamp OSTC 4 (which others?), Shearwater Petrel 2 and 
Perdix / Perdix AO, Suunto EON Steel and Scubapro G2. There are a couple other 
dive computers which we support for download via cable, but that aren't 
supported via BLE, e.g. Aeris 300CS. And then reference the FAQ for more 
information. That way we only need to update one spot if there are changes to 
the supported computers.
One important thing to point out is that on Linux there are known issues if you 
are on an older version of Qt than 5.9.2. I have lost track if any of the dive 
computers will actually work with anything older than 5.9 - Linus, do you still 
remember? I know that most work with 5.9.1 and one (EON Steel?) needs 5.9.2

Again, not something I can help with.

5) not sure how much impact this has on the manual, but support for multiple 
sensors being used at the same time. This may right now be only Perdix AI (for 
side mount divers), but we should at least mention it.

6) in the dive computer configuration section, mention support for the OSTC 4


Thanks
