I'm happy to announce the release of virt-manager 1.4.0!

virt-manager is a desktop application for managing KVM, Xen, and LXC
virtualization via libvirt.

The release can be downloaded from:

http://virt-manager.org/download/

This release includes:

- virt-manager: spice GL console support (Marc-André Lureau, Cole Robinson)
  - Note, this isn't enabled by default, and there isn't any GUI bits to
    enable this, but if it _is_ enabled the virt-manager SPICE viewer will
    do the right thing. More details:
