+-- This is part 1 of an alternative upgrade path for the upgrade 6.6.0-6.6.1. The upgrade
+-- 6.6.0-6.6.1 requires that ccm-cms-assets-imagestep is installed. But cmc-cms-assets-imagestep
+-- can't be installed before 6.6.0-6.6.1 because 6.6.0-6.6.1 alters some important tables used
+-- when calling ccm load. This upgrade and the upgrade 6.5.9-6.6.1 split the 6.6.0-6.6.1 upgrade
+-- into two parts. This part, 6.5.9-6.6.0 is altering the tables needed by ccm load. After this
+-- upgrade you can install ccm-cms-assets-imagestep using ccm load ccm-cms-assets-imagestep. 
+-- The upgrade ccm-cms-6.5.9-6.6.1 contains the remaining parts of the 6.6.0-6.6.1 upgrade 
+-- especially the part which requires ccm-cms-assets-imagestep.
