I should have reported this early.  This  should  read "Updated CA
(Certification Authority) Helper application".  CA Helper application is not
part of the Admin Console.  Not a big thing though, but, do consider this
change if there is an need to spin another RC.

Thanks Vamsi. I've updated the Wiki version (http://cwiki.apache.org/ 
confluence/display/GMOxDOC20/RELEASE-NOTES-2.0.2.TXT) with this  
change and and also changed "maintenance EJB" to "management EJB" in  
the MEJB bullet.

I agree these changes don't require a new RC. Possible that the  
changes could be included as we roll out the release.
