<h2>Current Release</h2>
+ <h4>4 September 2007</h4>
+ <p class="headline">Samba 4.0.0 alpha1 Available for Download</p>
+
+ <p>Samba 4 is the ambitious next version of the Samba suite that is 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 WARNINGS in WHATSNEW.txt in the source
+ and the STATUS file which aims to document what should and should not work.</p>
+
+ <p>Samba4 alpha1 is the culmination of 4.5 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), and 1.5 years since we first released a Technology Preview.
+ We wish to allow users, managers and developers to see how we have
+ progressed, and to invite feedback and support.</p>
+
+ <p>This release has been signed using GPG with Andrew Barlett's GPG key (28B436BB).
+ The source code can be
+ <a href="/samba/ftp/samba4/samba-4.0.0alpha1.tar.gz">downloaded now</a>.</p>

- <p>With 4 years of development under our belt since Tridge first proposed a new
