I can hold off 3.0.1 a couple hours longer if that is a realistic thing
to do. I don't see the UDCF as that important since we have a different
format from them that we support. So I think the best possible DivingLog
support would be my preference.

I'll add a few more exported dives from DivingLog next (and fix the
naming of the existing ones).
