  It's "ongoing".  The recent AI tools have required us to spend a fair =
amount of time on them, which was unexpected.

At the same time, it does look like there is still ongoing activity in =

  The tarball is an alpha release.  We should probably remove it.

  Pretty much everything works, we're just waiting to finish radsec.

  All of the docs are available online at =
https://www.freeradius.org/documentation/freeradius-server/4.0.0/

  They're updated daily.
