<h2>Current Release</h2>
+ <h4>17 October 2006</h4>
+ <p class="headline">Samba 4.0.0TP3 Available for Download</p>
+
+ <p>Samba 4 is an ambitious development effort of the Samba project, being
+ developed in parallel to the stable 3.0 series. The main emphasis in
+ this branch is support for the Active Directory logon protocols used
+ by Windows 2000 and above.</p>
+
+ <p>Samba 4 is currently not yet in a state where it is usable in
+ production environments. Note the STATUS file, which aims to document
+ what should and should not work.</p>
+
+ <p>With 3 years of development under our belt since Tridge first proposed a
+ new Virtual File System (VFS) layer for Samba3 (a project which
+ eventually lead to our Active Directory efforts), it was felt that we
+ should create something we could 'show off' to our users. This is third
+ Technology Preview (TP), aimed at allowing users, managers and
+ developers to see how we have progressed, and to invite feedback and
+ support.</p>
+
+ <p>In particular, this release has a strong focus on portability and
+ infrastructure. The aim is to give Samba4 a solid foundation on which
+ we can again move to create more visible features. That said, two
+ particular technologies included in this release are the LDAP backend,
+ and the experimental SMB2 server.</p>
+
+ <p>The uncompressed tarball and patch files have been signed
+ with Andrew Bartlett's key (ID 157BC95E). The source code can be
+ <a href="/samba/ftp/samba4/">downloaded now</a>. See the
+ <a href="/samba/history/samba-4.0.0tp3.html">release notes</a>
+ for more information.</p>
