Awasu 3.0.4.alpha2

IMPORTANT: This is an alpha release (what's this?). Some features may not be complete and there will probably be bugs!

You must be already running 3.0.3 or 3.0.4.alpha1.

To install:

• Read the release notes below first!
• Backup your Awasu installation directory and keep it, even if the alpha appears to work correctly.
• Unpack one (!) of the following zips on top of your existing installation:
  • Personal Edition
  • Advanced Edition
  • Professional Edition
• If you are upgrading from 3.0.4.alpha1, just delete Awasu.upgrade from the installation directory.

  This may take a short time to run.
