After a bit of a bumpy weekend and some downtime this morning, it seem like Therap 2012.2 is purring along nicely. (we are of course continuing to keep a very close eye on things)

Now it is time for folks to get used to working with Security Profiles, the news privilege managements screens and work out how to get the most out of both as well as the host of other features.
