Don,

Just one last thing... Please install RC6 as soon as possible.

RC5 had some issues which have been resolved (yes, I know you got a

> Fix all indexes that had a huge amount of duplicates
> Take the duplicate record check out of import and make it it's own

> Change the duplicate record check logic

> These suggestions were made by Nickolay Samofatov, Sean
