Just thought I'd point out a couple of things to note for those that have
downloaded and installed the dev branch version... If you chose to not
replace the weewx.cong during install, you need to update the schema
location in your weewx.conf from:
schema = schemas.wview_extended.schema
to:
schema = weewx.schemas.wview_extended.schema

and if uploading to the WOW-BE service the stanza is now WOW-BE and no
longer WOWBE

I also just built a new deb package against the dev branch, that includes a
change in restx.py for WOW-BE to hopefully fix pressure readings.

If you setup apt to install it, an apt update; apt upgrade should pull it
down and install it, otherwise download a fresh copy and install with dpkg:
