As our 2nd birthday
<https://www.icinga.org/2011/05/06/happy-2nd-birthday-icinga/> was just
last week, Icinga has a little belated present for you... version 1.4
for download <http://sourceforge.net/projects/icinga/>! This time round
we have many new features to show in the Classic UI and new Icinga Web,
alongside bug fixes and much behind-the-scenes development in Core,
IDOUtils and API. The two UIs were definitely this release's shining
stars -- check out Michael F's post
<https://www.icinga.org/2011/05/04/revisited-icinga-classic-ui/> for
more info.
