Preparing a 4.0.0 release

[Sidney Markowitz]

We are down to six open issues on Bugzilla with a 4.0 milestone, none 
listed as blockers. Let's see if we can get a release out. I'll take 
care of the release manager duties. Henrik volunteered to spend some 
time wrapping up issues during the next few weeks. Of course anyone else 
can help too.

One possible loose end I noticed is that there are some open issues with 
milestone "Undefined", seven of which are Priority 2, Severity Major. 
That's a small enough number that it should be easy to scan and at least 
 verify that none of them are of interest for 4.0.0.

Regards,

 Sidney
