You can update the databases (by using the File / Update DB menu) with a 
opened log. It will add the callsigns (and the exchanges if the database 
is specialized for one contest) to the current base for this log.

In the future, we are planning to modify the database format to make it 
more flexible, and usable with other public tools.

The SCP format, even "public" (more or less), is only adapted for 
callsigns lists. You can't add any exchange information or other data 
attached to each callsign. Our idea is to merge several databases in one 
file only to ease its maintenance. But it requires some work !
