IMPORTANT alpha release notes
-----------------------------

If you have built a 4Suite repository using an older version of 4Suite,
you will probably have to make adjustments for this new release.  If you
used 0.12.0a3, or a more recent verson, then it should suffice to
recompile all stylesheets for each repsitory instance:

4ss_manager recompile

In any case, see the following document for more details:
