# Transmission 4.0.1
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `4.0.0` release two weeks ago generated a lot of [useful feedback](https://github.com/transmission/transmission/issues) (thank you!!) so we've been busy fixing bugs. This release has only bug fixes, documentation improvements, and build script fixes to make packaging easier.
|
||
|
|
||
|
RIP, Yeeshkul. TJ, your tracker is one of the first things that got me (@ckerr) interested in torrents when I started contributing to the Transmission project back in 2007. So long and thanks for all the fish.

||
|

||
|
