If the WCF service is set up, the profile picture will now be displayed to the right of the name. Use the context menu to add a new profile picture or remove the existing one.
You can still set or edit the profile picture in the Attachments tab.

School holidays have a new feature: Region code.
You can use the region code to specify the region (county, state) to which the school holidays apply.
In the school holidays output field, you can use this region code as a filter. This allows you to create different holiday columns in the schedule.
