Dear all, We are pleased to announce the first *Release Candidate* of OTB *4.0*.
The major change of this release is the support of ITK 4.5 and higher (note that previous versions of ITK are no longer supported), which was quite a bit of work. You can now benefit from the new functionalities offered by an up-to-date ITK. Note that though we tried our best to limit API changes, we could not avoid some of them. You can find a Migration Guide <http://wiki.orfeo-toolbox.org/index.php/Migration_guide_OTBv4> about how to migrate your code to this new API. Another novelty brought by this work on ITK 4.x support is the ability to build OTB against an external ITK, which saves some compilation time. Further cleanup has been made during this work, including removing old dependencies from OTB : Pqxx, LibLAS, Gettext and Insight Journal code. All FLTK based code (including the old visualization library used by Monteverdi) has been moved in Monteverdi source code, where it can be accessed by linking against OTBVisuFLTK and OTBGuiFLTK. Last, we of course fixed numerous bugs and added small functionalities. For more information, please read the complete Release Notes <http://hg.orfeo-toolbox.org/OTB/file/tip/RELEASE_NOTES.txt>. Source tarballs are available here <http://www.orfeo-toolbox.org/packages>. You can also obtain the source code using Mercurial: hg clone http://hg.orfeo-toolbox.org/OTB cd OTB hg update -r 4.0-rc1 Feel free to test the release candidate and share your experiences on the mailing list. And if you run into a bug, please file it into ourissues tracker <http://bugs.orfeo-toolbox.org>.

Then, the development will focus now to add a new set of functionalities in OTB and prepare the new version of Montevedi2 based on a new and powerful rendering mechanism.
