added a note in the Dashboard equipment that identifies the resolution of the track log reported from the device.

6024: Put a warning that a three letter search won't work

Fixed some incorrectly spelled words in the Agent upload results.

Fixed a bug with the Activity Types list where the drop down was not remembering the previous activity type.  Re-worked so that Activity Types are now offered in a single drop down and ordered by popularity of activities of the person logged in.

6829: AllSport GPS Uploads Are failing...

Fixed a problem where All Sport GPS synchronization was failing.

7057: Moving Time is longer than total time

Fixed a bug where activity total time was longer than moving time.  This was caused by a confusion in how the device reports lap time.  All new uploads will reflect this fix and previous activities  will be fixed too.

7056: Heart Rate Zones in Map Player Break

Made the heart rate zones in the Map Player finally work.  Whew!!!  Signs of progress.

removed MBlog preview to keep slow loading time from feedburner from affecting MB load times

Fixed a bug where training center uploads of activities performed in daylight savings time are one hour off.  This bug also affects the Mac Agent since it sends information in Training Center format.

7015: Activities with Auto-Pause have invalid Lap Finish Time

Fixed a bug where moving time was longer than total time.  This was due to a confusion in how the device reports lap time.  Previous uploads worked off the lap start time + moving duration.  Now the finish time is equal to the timestamp of the last trackpoint.  Pre-existing activities will be fixed in a future bulk update.
