Kwort 4 final released

[David B. Cortarello]

Hello everybody,
Kwort 4 is finally here! For those who don't know, Kwort 4 is now a
full x86_64 system (finally!). In the last couple of week we've been
testing Kwort 4 hardly to see if everything is "stable-enough".
This new version is actually pretty awesome, fast, stable, and with
the simplicity that has always characterized Kwort.
Because of the architecture switch, we have everything rebuilt from
scratch, from the toolchain to the latest X11 application. And of
course, our package mirror is already populated with some useful
packages.

Now, the most significant technical aspects:
- Linux kernel 3.8.5.
- Chromium 25.0.1364.97.
- Firefox 20.0 is available in the iso in more/xapps.
- LibreOffice 4.0.1 is also available in more/xapps.
- Our new installation system, as the system in general got a
significant speed up because of the architecture upgrade.
- Of course, our system remains light and clean as Kwort users like it.

As always, I would like to thank the people who helped making Kwort
as good as it is, some in more ways than others:
- My good old friend, Andreas Schipplock, as always for
replicating the image to the main hosting and for testing.
- Our infrastructure providers, the people from PGHosting and
Ricardo Brisighelli for the package mirror and development environment
in the UNR.
- As usual, a big thanks to the CRUX people for developing it, as
it is the system Kwort is based on; CRUX 3 made this version really
easy to build.
- And of course, the people who develop every project Kwort makes
use of. A SUPER THANK YOU.
