I enclose below the text that Charles Bacon sent today to announce@globus.org.
There are a LOT of improvements in GT4.0.5. A few highlights: GRAM staging performance is doubled, thanks to optimized local invocations; GridWay metascheduler is included; lots of new trigger service functionality.
"On behalf of the Globus Toolkit development team I am pleased to announce that a new incremental release of GT4 is now available for download. Source is available now, and binaries will arrive in 24h.
Users who wish to receive the latest bug fixes are encouraged to install this release. Highlights of 4.0.5 include:
Several bug fixes in all components, listed in the release notes, and some new features in WS-GRAM and MDS. These new features are all off unless turned on in config files, and all new features are backward compatible.
