I haven't been paying attention to the latest developments recently,
but I'm interested in trying out 4.0 now.

Are the nightly tar.gz files VTK4.0 or still the old 3.2 versions
(i.e, is there a separate CVS tree for 3.2 and 4.0 or is 4.0 just a
continous update to 3.2)?

The reasin I ask is downloading a .tar.gz file is a lot faster than
downloading via CVS.

Thanks,
Dave
