    Dear Rudder community,
    <p>Rudder 4.0 has never been that close!</p>
    <p> We have released two new releases candidates ( rc4 and rc5)<br>
    </p>
    <p>Major 4.0 features include:</p>
    <ul>
      <li>You can select how your policy will be applied. Two modes are
        available:</li>
      <ul>
        <li>Enforce: Rudder classic mode, which enforces the
          configuration.</li>
        <li>Audit: Will only check if the configuration is valid, doing
          nothing on your nodes</li>
        <li>This mode is defined globally, and can be overridden by
          nodes and directives</li>
        <li>Audit wins over Enforce if their is a conflict between
          directive and nodes<br>
        </li>
      </ul>
      <li> The web interface has been redesigned to be pretty,
        responsive and clearer for a more pleasant experience</li>
      <li>New Rest API methods:</li>
      <ul>
        <li>Manage Rudder settings<br>
        </li>
        <li>Launch remote agent run (one by one, all nodes)</li>
      </ul>
      <li>A file browser can be used to select files from the
        shared-folder</li>
      <li>Performance gain (compliance, policy generation)</li>
      <li>new commands in rudder agent ( remote run on groups, status,
        new run output ...)</li>
      <li>Upgrade dependencies (CFEngine, fusionInventory, ... ) <br>
      </li>
    </ul>
    The changelog will be available soon here: <a class="external"

    <p>This software is in "release candidate" status and contains
      multiple bug fixes since the first release candidate (4.0.0~rc3).<br>
