CRITICAL BUGFIX A bug existed that prevents PayPal charges from using your set currency when using a kiosk created with the Console based kiosk editor. (Mantis 913) This release fixes the bug and runs a database query that will retroactively correct all kiosk PayPal settings to set the currency properly. The result of this bug is PayPal defaulting to charge all payments in USD. Please double check your kiosk payment settings after updating to 9.0.3 and review your PayPal transaction history if you use a currency other than USD. (This bug did not affect old kiosks that still use a manually edited 'steps' setting file.)
