Thanks for the clarification Dave, I completely agree that this is a very useful resource, but I can also understand why things are not always kept fully up-to-date.
Perhaps it would be useful if people notify the appropriate beam line team when they notice that the details on the Biosync website are out-of-date? I had not realised that the pages could be edited.
