[ovirt-users] [ANN] oVirt 4.1.0 First Release Candidate is now available

[Beckman, Daniel]

I added a comment to this bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1416579

In summary, the test build works great and addressed both bugs!

    Daniel already filed two bugs:
    
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1416533
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1416579
    
    I CCed on them Christophe, the maintainer of spice-nsis, on which
    ovirt-wgt is based, and he very quickly posted a patch to spice-devel.
    
    I pushed the patch also to our gerrit, so jenkins will do a test build:
    
    https://gerrit.ovirt.org/71226
    http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-wgt_master_create-rpms-fc24-x86_64_created/22/
    
    Daniel, can you please try the test build and report whether it works
    for you? Thanks!
    Also asked you on one of the bugs. Feel free to reply wherever is most
    convenient.
    
    Best,
