  ****************************************************************
  The upgradeProfile.py script needs to be updated for every BPM
  Standard interim fix that introduces or changes settings in
  the Standard configuration XML because it contains a list of
  well-known changes that need to be applied to existing
  profiles.
  

Problem conclusion

• The upgradeProfile.py script will be changed to update the
  existing configuration based on the new BPM Standard template
  XML files. Custom modifications in the configuration XML files
  that are shipped with the product will be backed up, so they
  can be re-applied after running BPMProfileUpgrade.ant. This is
  not necessary for customizations through 100Custom.xml.
  
  Install/Dependency information is available in the readme.txt
  on FixCentral. When the user goes to the download files page
  in FixCentral, the readme will be available with the fix
  package as a separate download.
