I have installed the new (May 6) driver and my system seems happy enough. I'm not sure I'm a good test, as I had previously hacked skin.conf to exclude the non-existent sensors (as opposed to letting the system self-configure and ignore missing data, right?) and I am loath to put that back.
But I suppose the next software update (I'm still on WeeWX 4.7, Seasons 4.6) I'll find out just how happy it is. But I'll bet it's fine. Thanks again for your work!
