Geeklog 1.4.0[*1] is one of the biggest updates in Geeklog's history and introduces the following new features and changes:

.Those updating from 1.4.0rc2 will find a list of the files that have changed in the included file docs/changed-files. When upgrading from earlier 1.4.0 versions, please replace all the files, as changes often depend on changes in other files and a mixture of old and new files may leave you with a non-working site. Note that there were no database changes between all of the 1.4.0 versions, so you don't need to run the install script again.
