Hi Asyn, I really appreciate your interest. I know that the changes were related to setup, licensing, user interface, browser and firewall components. There are no specific actions I would recommend to try, some of the code changes are even disabled and just preparation for something in the future (so the code is kind of sleeping now). So basically anything that you will exercise in those areas is generally useful. Also note that most of them (if not all of them) are just little things and final tunning before public release Anyway, thank you again and have a nice day.
