12.1.0 release candidate 3 (build 16) released

[Samuel Greenfeld]

At this point in time there would have to be a significant reason to
include a full activity update as opposed to creating a new dotted activity
version with a specific fix.

As mentioned in Daniel's email the final release is currently scheduled for
July 9th.  The final build therefore needs to be tested before that date.

We are looking for versions we know are stable, not the most recent
bugfixes.

Do any of these updates have a particular fix you require or strongly
recommend?
