New build 2.8.0.1024 has updated Data retriever tool, and Rename many teams command.

In Data retriever v3.4, added possibility to use data to update current league, and fixed some bugs related to wrong or incomplete listing of tennis competitions.

Teams > Rename many teams command now uses current league filename plus .ren extention for rename file by default. Otherwise it searches rename file Rename.ren. This feature allows to create multiple rename files in the same directory.
