Knoppix 4.0
Not actualy out yet, but very close. dakota has sent me a provate message that indicates it will be first released at Linux-Tag in 2 days. abittner has posted this message in the Knoppix-DVD forum. If our experience with 3.8 is any indication, it may be a couple of weeks or more before we see official files on the mirrors or on BitTorrent (I would urge using BitTorrent over the mirrors, particularly for the DVD version.)

If anyone at LinuxTag gets the Maxi (DVD-ROM) discs, please consider making an ISO & a bittorrent of them & then submitting them to either Welcome to The Linux Mirror Project or LinuxQuestions.org - ISOs so that it can get quickly mirrored.

It is only a matter of time before it hits big sites like OSNews or Slashdot (please don't post it there, I would want it well seeded before that.)
As of 12:15am Eastern, the current ratio is 189:837. Please continue to seed this DVD after you have completed the download.
I put up some screenshots of Knoppix 4.0 on my site. There are three galleries: One for general Knoppix 4.0 menus & applications. One for the a HD Install (read http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Hd_Install_HowTo before attempting). And one for after the HD install.

Unfortunately, I don't think I am. See my post in the Lounge forum.

would it bet legal to make iso out of the cd/dvd and post it publically on the internet? i mean not all the stuff that is on those media is licensed under gpl, such as the knoppix logos and other stuff might need some permissions of the actual copyright holders...
or am i mistaken here?
of course knopper as the creator/publisher of knoppix has all the rights to release his knoppix as he choses to and to upload it to the internet, but if he first distributes it on cd/dvd media are we allowed to share it on the net before he choses to do it that way?
anyone knows the legal details?

Maybe the forum would be redisigned. Now DVD is just a field, but in next times maybe would be useful 2 sections, one for cd and the other for dvd users. I think I will be one of them in the cd section...for a while

Features
Other than being split between a CD and DVD version what other changes are there in the base system and knoppix tools (not just added apps) since 3.9? I am curious because I have just spent quite a bit of time moving my knoppix based distro to 3.9 and need to know if it will be worth it to move to 4.0 or whether I should just wait for 4.1 or 4.2.

changes
What I heard is that UnionFS is now working and several enhancements from Knoppix based distributions like Kantonix, Quantian, Paipix, Freeduc ... flowed back into Release 4.0. For example some Hardware support for widely used ISDN and DSL-Hardware from AVM, a enhanced Harddisk-Installer, and so on.
The DVD-Version is also directly bootable into the software-distributionsystem "m23". They also brought two e-books on it ("Knowing Knoppix" in english and "Knoppix Kompakt" in german). Also if you wish to choose between 4 different offices (OO 2.0 Beta(Build 104), KOffice, Abiword and Gnumeric), you should use Knoppix 4
So I think you can wait for the next version if you know something else to do while waiting on it...
