[ANNOUNCE] Real-Time Toolkit v1.4.1 released

The Orocos development team is pleased to announce the first bug-fix
release of the Real-Time Toolkit v1.4, a C++ toolkit for building
component based, real-time robotics and machine control applications.

You can download this release from
<http://www.orocos.org/stable/rtt/v1.4.1/orocos-rtt-1.4.1-src.tar.bz2>
and read the installation instructions on
<http://www.orocos.org/stable/documentation/rtt/v1.4.x/doc-xml/orocos-installation.html>
The main manual for building your own components can be found on 
<http://www.orocos.org/stable/documentation/rtt/v1.4.x/doc-xml/orocos-components-manual.html>

In addition to documentation updates and various minor bug fixes, the
following reported bugs were fixed in this release:

  ID     Vers   TargetM  Summary
 178     rtt-b   1.4.1   Event transition in state machine script undetected 
if no 'select' statement
 481     1.4.0   1.4.1   connectPorts only partially connects two read ports
 482     1.4.0   1.4.1   Corba's createMethodAny and createCommandAny methods 
broken
 486     1.4.0   1.4.1   SimulationThread locks up system under Xenomai 2.4
 521     1.4.0   1.4.1   event transitions can cause crashes (in state 
machines,...)

Debian packages of this version should be up by tomorrow. For Xenomai, we'll  
track the Debian 'unstable' version but rebuild it for 'Etch' and put it in 
our repository.

RTT 1.6.0 will branch from trunk as soon as the CORBA improvements have 
stabilised and all open projects for 1.6.0 are merged. A release would not be 
long after.
