+= Release Notes for Version 1.4.1
+:toc!:
+:doctype: article
+
+	Version 1.4.1 is a minor release. It fixes install issues on
+	Windows and provides the missing TeleMetrum V2.0 firmware. There
+	aren't any changes to the firmware or host applications at
+	all. All Windows users will want to upgrade to get the signed
+	driver, but Mac and Linux users who do not need the TeleMetrum
+	V2.0 firmware image will not need to upgrade.
+  
+	== AltosUI and TeleGPS Applications:
+
+	Windows Install Fixes
+
+      	* Provide signed Windows driver files. This should avoid any need to
+	  disable driver signature checking on Windows 7 or 8.
+	
+      	* Fix Java version detection and download. Previously, the
+	  installer would only look for Java 6 or 7 and insist on
+	  downloading its own Java bits if there was something else
+	  installed. Furthermore, the 64-bit Java link provided didn't
+	  work for anyone other than Keith, making it impossible to
+	  install AltOS on any machine with Java SE 8 installed.
+	
+	Other Fixes
+
+      	* Include 1.4 firmware for TeleMetrum V2.0. None of the
+	  installers shipped this file. Now it's included in the AltOS
+	  packages for Linux, Mac and Windows.
+	
+      	* Include Google Application Key for map downloading. The 1.4
+	  release didn't have this key in the released version of the
+	  software, making map downloading fail for most people.
