          SUMMARY OF CHANGES IN RIVERWARE PATCH RELEASE 6.0.3
         -----------------------------------------------------
                       Released March 8, 2011
         -----------------------------------------------------

Bugs
----------------------------------------
The following bugs were fixed:
* 5017,5020 - Initialization rules can lead to problems with re-dispatching
(see section below).
* 5019 - Filling values at beginning of run overwrites values set by
initialization rules (see section below).
* 5029 - Unregulated Spill near the crest was too low in certain
situations.
* 5030 - Diversion from reservoir was negative. Reservoir Available for
Diversion is now limited to be greater than or equal to zero.
* 5036 - SCT export copy with column headers could have problem with
monthly and annual slots.
* 5039 - Rule priorities were not shown in the Open Slot dialog for annual
series slots.


Initialization Rules and Flags
----------------------------------------
Initially, Initialization Rules could either set values with the "Z" or "i"
flags. It was decided to replace the "i" flag option with the "R" flag
option. Thus, initialization rules can set either the "R" or "Z" flag. In
rulebased simulation, values set with the "Z" flag are given the highest
priority, that is, zero (0) priority. Values set by initialization rules
with the "R" flag are given a low priority equal to the number of rulebased
simulation rules plus one (number of RBS rules + 1).

Existing Initialization Rules sets which contain rules which previously set
the "i" flag will be adjusted to set the "R" flag instead; a one-time
warning will be issued.

Because the "i" flag is now specific to iterative MRM, the name of the "i"
flag was changed to "Iterative MRM" (originally it was "Computed Input",
then it was "Initialization", now it is "Iterative MRM").
