At least there is an updated version of the EBT-Tool, which supports notes from Slovakia. Beside the input mask all statistics are extended for this country.
Overview of the changes:
* The input mask accepts notes from Slovakia
* CSV-Files with notes from Slovakia are read without errors
* Distribution statistics now contains Slovakia
* After the loading of a local CSV-File is aborted in the File-Open-Dialog, the program wasn't loading anything
* Bugs removed from the Country-Origin-Filter
Known Problems:
* With a very high count of notes/hits/locations the tool crashes while loading (GDI-Error)
* Returning notes/self hits can't be accessed from the upload-result-window, if the chosen language of the website is not English
* This version is not (yet) usable on netbook resolutions
The last feature is a funfeature stolen from the NIG-Tool by bobtail.
The download is available at the URL http://euro.ernie-hh.de/ebt-tool/ebt.exe.
Simply replace your ebt.exe-File with the downloaded new version.
for nostalgic reasons now the original anouncement by Nerzhul:

I just wanted to draw your attention to a little program I wrote to make tracking notes easier and more comfortable.
You can find the EBT-Tool here.
Download size is about 710 kb and the homepage, program and readme are kept in english to suit a broad audience.
Current Version: 0.99.9e (2008-08-15)
Changes since last version:
- Bugfix: The option "Update local CSV" now works as intended.
- The program supports the new format of the exported note-CSV file now. The old format is no longer recognized. When using the option "Update local CSV" the 5 additional fields will be left blank.
- Bugfix: The flag of Latvia is now displayed correctly.
Please note that if you're upgrading from version 0.99.7 or before you have to manually delete the existing map location settings which can be found under "Options -> General".
The main features of the EBT-Tool are
1) Generation of various statistics
2) Ability to semi-automatically download the CSV from your account
3) Comfortable mask for entering notes that lets you pre-define values for all fields
4) Ability to enter note data offline and submit it later
4) Easy management of your preferred cities and comments
6) Ability to update your local copy of your CSV with the note data transmitted by the EBT-Tool
7) Ability to analyze your hit data and generate various statistics from it
Please spare a couple of minutes and read the readme to get detailed explainations of all these features.
The EBT-Tool is still beta though, although there has already been a longer betatest in the german part of the EBT forum where most bugs and flaws were found. If you have comments about the program, found bugs or have questions just let me know. I will advertize new versions in this thread parallel to the one in the german forum.
Thanks for reading through my rambling,
