-- issue #473 -- Support for SMTP authentication.  AnthillPro can now
send emails using SMTP servers that require authentication.

-- issue #509 -- Dependency Artifacts are deleted when multiple projects
depend on the same artifacts.  This has been an elusive bug which has
finally been squashed.  If more than one project was dependent on a
particular project (project A), then the artifacts of project A would be
available to only one of the dependent projects.

-- issue #597 -- Perforce Driver revision log capturing only first
revision in change list.  All files in the change list are now reported
on the revision log.

-- issue #616 -- Email URL Link is wrong.  The link sent out on build
notification emails was incorrect after we started using Velocity for
the Emil Templates.  This has now been fixed.

-- issue #618 -- Roles that do not have "build" permissions still see
the "build" link on the front page.  This has now been fixed so that
only users that have the "build" permission for a project will see the
"build" link for that project on the main page of Anthill.

-- issue #620 -- Emails send on success even when configured for
failure.  This has now been fixed.

-- issue #621 -- Velocity error.  This has now been fixed.  The problem
was that we did not bundle the commons-collections.jar file with Anthill
Pro.

-- issue #623 -- HTTP 500 error on main page refresh in IE when
authentication is turned on.  This is a problem with IE failing to
refresh the specified URL.  A workaround for this has been implemented.

-- issue #633 -- Directory Publisher remove filter check box does not
work.  This has now been fixed.

-- issue #634 -- Publishers with non-default publish directory fail.
This has now been fixed.

-- issue #637 -- Deleting example projects causes start up errors.  This
is an issue that has resurfaced from time to time.  Let's hope that this
was the last time :)

-- issue #638 -- Exception after deleting Counter.  This has now been fixed.

-- issue #644 -- Support for project, branch, and build track variable
names passed into builders.

-- issue #652 -- Copying EmailBuildNotifier does not copy a reference to 
the Email Template.  This is now fixed.
