Does Faithlife ever update the Weights/Measures Currency Converter?
Does Faithlife ever update the Weight/Measure Converter for currency, gold, and silver? Looks like it might be time for an update.
For example, Logos says 1 talent of gold is worth $1.2 million. However, the current value is $1.9 million according to OANDA.com currency converter. Also, the Dollar and the Euro are pretty much on par with each other now.
Is there a ten-year average used or something similar?
I'm not suggesting the currency conversions need to be exact or be updated frequently. But does Faithlife plan to update the currency conversion if there is a significant change that seems to be a sustainable change rather than a blip in the market?
Just curious.

That doesn't necessarily tell me if they specifically updated the conversion rates though, or if they plan to do that on some intentional schedule like 5 or 10-year averages. This interactive doesn't have an "About" button like some others to tell you the basis of the data.

Faithlife does not provide detailed change notes on resource updates, so I didn't read your request as asking that. Sorry I misunderstood what you wanted.

I updated the title and original post to clarify that I'm specifically asking about the currency conversion rates, which change over time.

Thanks for the clarification although I assumed that currency conversion and corrections were the only likely changes so I would have given the same unsatisfactory answer.
