actually, I think we are running about 2 4 1 in favor of me. The real deal
is that if you don't have 5.0 and you download and run this update, it
becomes your 5.0. Now of course, there is the sma issue but if you are
authorized to run 5.0, you can start with 5.0.844 with no problems.

I don't have JFW 5.0 so could I install this update without installing the
5.0 version?

Okay. I think I understand. Yes, it's a full install, but you can run the
install over your current JFW 5.0 and it will be updated. Just like the
two previous updates.
