It has been nearly 5 months since we created the release4.0 branch (late 
April). The hope for these release branches is that they will stabilize within 
about 3 months and be ready for an initial binary release. In order for this to 
happen effectively each branch needs a reasonably sized subset of the OFBiz 
community doing real-world work based on it. So...

1. Are there any users of the release4.0 branch with projects in production or 
moving in that direction?

2. For anyone in that group, could you share your thoughts on the current state 
of the branch?

At the minute the initial binary release has been delayed because committers 
and the PMC have been very busy on other projects (quite a summer!), but mostly 
because there just don't seem to be many issues files specifically for 
release4.0 and because there hasn't been much feedback from users grouping 
around that branch. Hence this email...

Because of the passing of time we will release a binary version in the near 
future (perhaps a couple of weeks or so) regardless of the responses in this 
thread or other relevant threads. If nothing else that may help attract 
end-users to the branch.

Thanks,
-David
