Great news!
Although I think I will stick to Linux Mint with gnome. It's more polished. But this doesn't matter now.
Congratulations for this awesome distro!

I don't see any seeders at all, just lots of leechers coming & going trying to get it. Do I have the right tracker? (torrent.lintelligence.de) I'm also trying to get LinuxMint-4.0-miniKDE.iso, no seeders or leechers there at all. Are there any other trackers where I might find one or both of these?

I think the torrent is broken.

Is the default kernel pre-patched for the local-user privilege escalation issue that surfaced not to long ago? I didn't see it in the release notes, so I figured I'd just go ahead and ask.
Thanks,
DrCR

Hallo Ladies and Gentlemen,
I would like to inform you, that language packs during install will be downloaded but
not installed
This happened with the "de" (Germany)packages. Internet connection was enabled and I saw that the packages were downloaded to HD, but installation failed
Packages were saved to /var/cache/apt/archive on Harddisc.
Can other non english speakers confirm that ? I am a bit frustrated
cheers

bernado, I am very sorry for your frustration. We tested using the French language and it worked for the final release. I did not foresee something like this happening. I figured if one language worked the others would as well. Because of this problem I will test with at least two languages from this point on.

A hearty congratulations to all involved. This is a beautiful release. I installed it yesterday when I got home from work and have not had any problems.
Usually with KDE I spend a while tweaking it to my wants, but with this release I did nothing more than change the desktop background. A testament to the polish applied by you folks.
