+= 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.
