    Dear Rudder community,<br>
    <br>
    We are very proud to announce that we have just released a new
    version: Rudder 4.0.0.<br>
    <br>
    Major new features include: <br>
    <ul>
      <li>Policy can be applied in "Audit mode", which only checks
        configuration and does not enforce it, on a global, per-node or
        per-directive basis</li>
      <li>Global redesign of web interface</li>
      <li>Files from shared folder can be selected using a file browser</li>
      <li>Agents can be remotely started using API (wrapper for "rudder
        remote run" on the CLI)</li>
      <li>Settings API</li>
      <li>Rudder agent status command</li>
      <li>Performance improved (compliance, policy generation are
        faster)</li>
      <li>New protocol for file copy<br>
      </li>
    </ul>
    <p>To learn more about these features, you can read our blog post
      about Rudder 4.0: <a

    </p>

    <br>
    This version of Rudder is a final release. We have tested it
    thoroughly and believe it to be free of any major bugs. This version
    is now the latest version of Rudder (lastest ESR is still 3.1), and
    3.2 will hence reach end-of-life in 3 months, the 10th February
    2017.<br>
    <br>
