+ 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.

+ Windows Install Fixes
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ 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

+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ 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.

+ <para>
+ 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.
