This release corrects handling of employees on Add Contact menu item. The employees can now be managed entirely through the Contact menu. This also improves on the business unit system, allowing for multiple top-level units per class, and includes many other improvements to the user interface.
Many of these improvements really should have been caught and made during the release candidate process for 1.4.0 but were not for one reason or another. The changes of this specific release may introduce minor bugs into workflows or break existing workflows. On the other hand, we believe that this is an improvement in the robustness of the software. If you are not affected by any of the changelog entries below, you may want to hold off for a release or two. If you are, however, you should probably upgrade as quickly as possible.
