WebSphere Commerce 6.0.0.3 Fix Pack
IBM released WebSphere Commerce 6.0.0.3 Fix Pack on 8/22/2007.
It has been only a couple of days since it was released. We are in no big hurry to install the fixpack in our environment. That is the case with most environments that are in production or in advanced development stage. But if you are just getting started it helps to start the environments at the latest fix pack level. Most people may have already installed fix pack 6.0.0.2 particularly if they are using Feature Pack 2 in their environment.
Here are the details about the fix pack:

You will need update installer 6.1.0.5. If you installed fix packs 6.0.0.2, you probably used installer version 6.1.0.4. Version 6.1.0.5 of the update installer can be downloaded from here.
