Hi Simon,

It will be a 1.5.0 release, because we are making some major changes in 
the metadata storage organization in order to obtain some rather 
substantial speedups. This necessitates some significant testing before 
the release.

We're working out the last few known bugs now. We were hoping that the 
kernels would stay consistent for a while and let us subsist on 1.4.0, 
but as usual that didn't work out :).

Soon!

Rob
