Hi, after downloading 4.0.0 from sourceforge (which has apparently been hacked and/or turned to the dark side), I need to correct myself:

[OT] Speaking of "getting worse" - is it normal that the sourceforge web page is completely littered with ads and forces you with a popup to accept cookie settings which it takes "several minutes" to save? They don't seem to have any visible effect, and keeping my browser busy without plausible reason is fishy in any case. So, I guess that's "bye sourceforge" ...
