 - New Functionality -

1. Rendering Engine
Introduction of a new rendering engine powered by Sun's JAXB rather than the Open Source CASTOR XML Binding classes.  The rendering engine now works with the binding classes direct, meaning a significant increase in performance when rendering the layout to the screen.

2. Additional Elements Support
The renderer can now understand the following element types
  * DISK
  * RECT
  * BEZEL
  * LED7SEG
  * LED14SEG
  * TEXT

3. Whats New/Update screen
Due to the changes, a further update screen was required to download any extra JAR files required.  The update process currently only downloads the ALE Jar file and replaces it.  With the introduction of JAXB came another 3 or 4 jar files that require to be installed to the lib directory of ALE.  This screen will have already done that process for you.

Many more bugs!
