Better planning software support

- Import routines for P6 now supports the web version of P6 r8, importing from P6 xml files as well as .xer files (including direct from zipped files)
- Import from the enterprise server version of Power Project is now possible in addition to the stand alone version (Note: security permission may be required)

Demo limit reset

- Running a demo version of 3.0  is now possible even if an expired demo licence for an earlier version of TLP exists

Support for P3 and PP5 ended

- The ability to import from Primavera P3 and Asta PowerProject 5 has been removed as standard. These are obsolete 16 bit programs now unsupported by their makers. Therefore the decision has been made to no longer ship the import modules for these programs with this and future versions of Time Location Plus.

Technical

- Version 3 licence now installed in the users Application Data folder to minimise permission conflicts

Some inevitable bug fix's
