The results of different analyses of the dynamical parameters of the Universe are converging towards agreement. Remaining disagreements reflect systematic errors coming either from the observations or from differences in the methods of analysis. Compiling the most precise parameter values with our estimates of such systematic errors added, we find the following best values: the baryonic density parameter Omega_bh^2 = 0.019 +/- 0.02, the density parameter of the matter component Omega_m = 0.29 +/- 0.06, the density parameter of the cosmological constant Omega_lambda = 0.71 +/- 0.07, the spectral index of scalar fluctuations n_s = 1.02 +/- 0.08, the equation of state of the cosmological constant w_lambda < -0.86, and the deceleration parameter q_0 = -0.56 +/- 0.04. We do not modify the published best values of the Hubble parameter H_0 = 0.73 +/- 0.07 and the total density parameter Omega_0 ^{+0.03}_{-0.02}.
