Post Upgrade Tasks

Question

Hello,
Recently we upgraded our E-Recruiting 3.0 SP12 system to SP15 (13,14,15).  Does anyone know of where I could obtain notes on post upgrade tasks?  i.e. things to check, activate, etc.
Thanks!
Ryan

Here are some from my list. I stopped maintaining it a while ago, we have lots more where this came from. Some of it also apply to older versions of OWB.
Key lookup     You are to choose input and output attributes BEFORE being able to choose loookup table, all in a time consuming wizard
Expressions     Copy and paste into expression editor, validation fails for expressions using lowercase (such as "upper" or "substr")
Renaming attributes     Not possible anymore, you need to open details
Adding a table component     You must browse in a tree structure (time consuming), not search functionality anymore
Import     Import converting from 9.2 hangs after 15% in about 10% of all imports
Import     Some mappings are not possible to import, a total rewrite is necessary
Deployment     You can only deploy about 5-10 times before you need to restart OWB
Memory leak     If something goes wrong in OWB, memory is never cleared - JAWAW.exe needs to be removed manually from memory
Import     Importing mappings one by one (as this is sometimes needed due to OWB), the last directory used is OF COURSE not default when importing the next time
OWB GUI / mapping editor     When working with components in the mapping editor, an object hidden behind the object you are actually working with is selected prior to the object in visual focus to the user
BUG!     Urgent: CASE - wrong generated Code
ANSI JOINS     Remove ANSI-SQL from mapping configuration, otherwise (+) outer joins will not work
Transformations     Not possible to enter a transformation such as "sysdate", you must find it in a huge tree structure list (no search available)
