</span>=> there is a documentation somewhere but I don't remember where it is...<br>
I am afraid it is only for one of the 2 SQL backends but it works in fact<br>

</span>=> at the exception of built-in classes when a class is not defined<br>
it does nothing and it raises a warning when option values are<br>
computed (the idea is to help when the class name was mistyped).<br>
So it is not a formal requirement to define classes but it does not<br>
make sense to not define them...<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>This does makes sense. I was not sure what exactly is entered in the column for a given </div><div>host reservation.
