DOCman Alphapoints Plugins

I’ve been asked a few times now if my alphapoints rules and modifications are applicable to DOCman 1.4.x or DOCman 1.5.x, the rules themselves we’re put in when Alphapoints were first released way back when it was still beta if i recall so yes they very likely could be greatly improved.
