I still see changes on the 1.4 branch every now and then. Has 1.4.1
been officially released yet? The web pages also say that the latest
release is 1.4, not 1.4.1. So if you want to beta-test 1.4.1, I suggest
downloading the tar-files which are created dayly (nightly? :-). If
not, you might just have to wait until it's released.
