It's time. Version 4.0 should be ready.
The 30th of july, I have packaged version 4.0 RC2 (RC1 was packaged several weeks before but no announcement were done).
This version should be Ready for production usage. However, it is still flagged as a Release Candidate, so every developer and integrator can test the packaging and return last fixes before world wide announcement.
Next version will be 5.0 (and not 4.1). This is a minor change in the way we increment version.
Reason is just to match better new standard rules of the market: It is also more clear for users to differentiate a major and a minor bug fix version.
One major version = +1 on main number.
So after 5.0, we should see 6.0, 7.0, ...
Work on version 5.0 has already started few weeks ago into development branch.
Note that i am looking a developer to implement the tag/categories feature on project (like it is done on thirdparty and product). I would like absolutely to have this feature in 5.0 because we need to be able to have information to make more powerfull analytics reports in Dolibarr and project (and tags) is a good solution for this. Once done, it will be possible to work on generic reporting/graphic solution.
Testing the accountancy and multicurrency module, available into 4.0 as an experimental feature (you must go into home - setup - other and set cosntant MAIN_FEATURES_LEVEL to 1 to see this modules) is also an important work we need to have this 2 important modules being released as stable for 5.0.
