To save you the time here's the pertinent message:
The first public version of KNOPPIX 3.4 will be announced and
distributed (if everything goes well) at CeBit 2004
(http://www.cebit.de/), and also be available for download shortly
afterwards.

The private edition in a german computer magazine is independent
thereof.

I'm still doing an update of the current 3.3 version, but have been
waiting for the XFS patch for Kernel 2.4.24 for quite a while without
success (it's still not there on
ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/patches/2.4.24, anybody happens to know
why it is delayed?). Now KDE 3.1.5 is slowly entering Debian/unstable,
and I will probably include it in the 3.3 update as well, so please
allow me some more time for the update.
As for features of the new 3.3 and new 3.4 releases, check out aay's post of about two weeks ago (Klaus says nothing has changed).

HTH
In the kernel source I've gotten from http://kernel.org for both 2.4.25 and 2.6, the XFS support is already there (without applying any patch). I'm not sure when this changed but it is nice being able to build this into the kernel since I use XFS now exclusively. The 2.6 changelogs show coders at SGI (and Intel, IBM, HP, etc.) are major contributors to kernel development.
