OK, so very few people are going to learn about the release of Capistrano 1.4.0 from me rather than from some other source. But I'm going to blog it anyhow, because I have ambitions to some day have this be as good a news source for my new community as Larkware is for my old one, and I have to start somewhere.

Anyhow, if you're deploying Rails applications from one server to another, you need this. It can also do a lot more than that, and some day when I get through a stack of other stuff I will explore it properly. Meanwhile it's off to run sudo gem install capistrano on a couple of machines to get them to update.
