             <ul><li>
+                Added Nym requests so that SOX accounts can set names
+                at server side.  This is not used within standard WebFunds
+                distribution as yet;  get Trader to see what it does, it
+                will be added to WebFunds when we can figure out a use
+                (... coming soon!)
+              </li><li>
+                More work on Abstract Payments.  Next step is to move
+                SimplePaymentFrame into SOX so that it can generate
+                random payments.

     3rd party wallets such as Trader from Systemics

+    Beginning with <b>1.7.2</b> there is a <code>UpgradesManager</code>
+    under the top <code>Plugins</code> Menu.
+    In that, clieck on <code>File</code> then </code>Explorer</code>.
+    Use the Explorer to access the wallet package you have already

+    The right place is the <code>plugins</code> directory.
+    This is early code, so monitor progress carefully.
