Sorry, I guess I was not clear enough originally. I wasn't actually saying that the change is wrong, only stating that DA850 users will have to do some manual work - also wanted to make sure you are cognizant of this fact. I still think having a separate DA850 config will be a good idea. Are you OK with that? Apologize again for the confusion.
