And I would like to thank you guys from the 'core team' who did
the great majority of the work and were able to deliver on time
(this time ;-)). As I was already working with the nearly
identical 1.4beta7 release, that is the more important aspect of
the 1.4 xmas packages. It is a sign for users and managers who
have to make business decisions based on your schedules that
they can rely on those schedules -- and such, rely on Midgard as
a professional open-source tool.

A few observations while upgrading from 1.4beta7 to 1.4 on a
Redhat 6.2 box w/ Kernel 2.4.0-test6:

 - midgard-data-1.4/INSTALL: There's a typo in 
   '--with-db-admin-passowrd'
 - midgard-data-1.4/dbinstall:

   Hmm ... host records are duplicated now (2 for asgard/, 2 for
   asgard/framed/ and so on...) and everything else (topics,
   articles) seem to have been installed again as well -- only
   the persons are untouched.
 - mod_midgard-1.4/Makefile: 'make conf' appends apache 
   configuration to httpd.conf, while midgard-data's dbinstall
   created a midgard.conf file with apparently the same purpose.
 - /admin: The old adminsite has a small bug -- the style
   element 'version' includes the stuff from 'navilinks', but no
   version information.

Great work, guys!
