###Thank you

Jordi, Campbell, Pau, Alex, Jayadeep, Aman, Chandan, Abhiram all other code contributors, testers, feature requesters and providers of the enthusiasm that keeps everybody fired up.

Sponsorship was provided by Equigerminal, DEOHS University of Washington, SANBI, Lab San Martin, and off course individual Naralabs and Bika Lab Systems team members who continue to contribute massively on their own accounts.

And one final thank-you to the man who makes it all possible: lemoene! 🍊

###Before your upgrade

Be sure to verify all pending Analysis Requests

This new release includes new functionality regarding Detection Limits (LDL and UDL), as well as Uncertainty management. After the upgrade, the user will not be able to manually set the detection limits in results for previously created analyses.

You can change this behaviour by enabling "Display a Detection Limit selector" and/or "Allow Manual Detection Limit input" options in Analysis Service edit tabs, but these changes will not take any effect on previously created analyses.

Remember to make a backup
