Hi,
User chiming in: before retiring 4.0, one would be more easily convinced
to make a transition to 4.1+ if the regressions from 4.0 to 4.1 numbered
fewer. In the database, I see only 79 (P3+) regressions in 4.1 that are
not in 4.0 (using only summary matching). Will these get a bit more
attention for the upcoming 4.1.2 release?
