mi2b2 software update

• Multi-PACSsystem programming is now complete on version 5. A new mi2b2 Workbench incorporating many new features, including a functioning Tab 3 and Tab 4, is in final testing. The new version will be uploaded on the MGH Production server later this week. It will be ready to deploy to the Baby Brain project hopefully by next week.
