Not sure how the update process will work yet. I'm thinking of a synchronization process that allows somebody to retrieve updates automatically, but I haven't designed this yet. It would have to be "non-destructive" for cigars that somebody has entered into his/her own app, so some matching process needs to be designed. I'm working on it

As for sending their changes in, I think the concern about getting garbage data, incomplete data, overwriting existing cigars, even malicious updates will prevent this from being a reasonable approach.

I guess yeah. Unless there was a way to filter it but even then might not be worth the hours to do it
