If you have an existing installation of Merlin you will need to replace the avan-meta and merlin plugins with the versions provided in this release. You will also need to update you merlin installation direcectory by copying the supplied distribution over an existing installation.
The only outstanding point seems to be the proxy credentials issue which I'll discuss further on the dev list.
Cheers, Steve.
