There is a handy little note about setting up the fields to be editable, but it overlooks one important note, that had previously discouraged me from using this module. You don't actually have to Set the field display to be editable (in content types -> MYNODE -> display) if you only want to make the fields editable in views. For editable views fields, you just need to change the "format" option in the views field settings to one of the Editable options to make it work. Previously I was annoyed that the field was going to be always editable.

In general, I think the project page could need some updating: Put all general instructions and information on the top, and only keep version specific information below (Drupal 7, 6, 5).

If you need help on this, I could attach a file with a suggestion.
