QUBES 4.0 release date...?

[neilh...@gmail.com]

Does anybody have any rough idea of the Qubes 4.0 release date...?

Obviously Qubes has not yet lived up to its security promises, with 2 Xen exploits in less than 1 year.

Qubes 4.0 promises a big security improvement with SLAT.

What about the release date..?

Also, what would it take for Qubes 4.0 to come out faster..?

Does Qubes simply need more donations and money..?

Would money greatly speed up the development of Qubes..? If so, how much money are we talking about..?

I look at things like the budget of the NSA, and the budget of Microsoft, and these are some huge budgets.

If the NSA could just ditch their dual mission of attack and defense, and do purely defense only... then they could probably develop Qubes in like 1 week or something..

Anyway... I'd like some more insight on this topic.

No official release date has been announced yet, but to get an idea, you can
take a look at the currently open issues for 4.0 here:

https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/milestones/Release%204.0

You can also see our roadmap, which includes the goals for 4.0, here (but
please note that this roadmap hasn't been updated in a while, so some of the
dates are off):
