On behalf of myself, Bill, Zack, Ken, Dave and the rest of the
CDash team, we are pleased to announce that CDash 1.4.1 is available for
download at: http://www.cdash.org

Documentation on how to upgrade from previous CDash installations is
available at: http://public.kitware.com/Wiki/CDash:Upgrade.
Note that we have improved the indexing of the database and the upgrade 
might take some time to re-index the database (about 1 hour for 50GB).

If you have any problems or find any bugs, please report them at
www.cdash.org/Bug.

A list of changes for the 1.4 release is included below and at

    http://public.kitware.com/Wiki/CDash:Upgrade#CDash_1.4

Happy CDashing,
Julien
