Shaun and Ruben, Am I to understand that if I want to upgrade...to fix the same issue Shaun has with <lastChangeLabeller> all I have to do is get the latest build and replace the old dll's in the server and dashboard folder in my current install with the new dll's from the new build? If that is the case, where can I find the latest reliable build?
