Overview of Changes
- The UAT was switched from descriptive, human readable concept identifiers to numeric identifiers. This is a rather significant change, and included in the source code download for this version is a mapping from previous identifiers to new identifiers.
- The preferred label of 79 concepts were updated to add context, clarity, and consistency.
- 16 new concepts were added to the UAT.
- 3 concepts were moved from one parent concept to another.
- 9 concepts were merged into similar concepts to remove duplicates from the UAT.
- Resolves Issues in Milestone Arinelle.
