The aidb.retrivers view is now the aidb.knowledge_bases view.Aliases for the aidb.knowledge_bases and aidb.preparers views have also been added as aidb.kbs and aidb.preps respectively.

The older functions and view names are still available but marked as deprecated. They will be removed in a future release.
