Hello world,
after more than a year of development we released Drupal 4.7.0 to the world. Details at:
http://drupal.org/drupal-4.7.0
There have been over 338 contributors to this latest release with over 1500 patches which is almost triple our previous record with Drupal 4.6 of 523 commits by 50 developers. Thanks to _you_ this is the best Drupal version to date! If you take a moment to look back and reflect on things, you'll realize this has been a fun but crazy ride. I'm proud, really proud, of what we accomplished the past year. :)
Thank you,

And how fitting that an article on Drupal 4.7 be on Free Software Magazines frontpage!

There were a few last minute string changes. I have created new POT files and uploaded them to the 4.7 branch. The tarball will be updated in a few hours.
Cheers, Gerhard
Great News!
Here is my try of a German translation from the Article on the site. It is not perfect, just a suggestion. Please change as you seem fit (of course, I do not want to hold or enforce any copyright on this translation).
Nach mehr als einem Jahr Entwicklungsarbeit sind wir in der Lage, Drupal 4.7.0 zu veröffentlichen. Mehr als fünf Jahre, 13 Hauptversionen, über 30 Serviceunternehmen, die mehr als 100 Drupal-Entwickler beschäftigen, über 300 Third-Party-Module und über 55.000 mit Drupal betriebene Websites später ist Drupal 4.7.0 endlich hier, und es ist klasse!
Drupal ist eine open-source Content Management Plattform. Drupal ist mit einer mächtigen Mischung von Funktionen ausgestattet und unterstützt eine breite Palette von Websites, vom persönlichen Weblog von Tim Berners-Lee, Podcast-Sites wie TWIT.tv und Community-Websites wie SpreaFireFox.com bis hin zu großen Medien-Websites wie TheOnion.com und sogar Webseiten der NASA.
2005 war explosiv für die Drupal-Gemeinde. Drupal.org hat sich beinahe verdreifacht in Hinblick auf Seitenaufrufe, Downloads und Benutzerzahl und mit der Veröffentlichung von 4.7.0 sehen wir, dass die neugewonnene Energie die Plattformentwicklung in einem atemberaubenden Tempo vorantreibt. Es gab über 338 Menschen, die etwas zu dieser neuesten Version beigetragen haben mit über 1500 Patches, was fast das Dreifache unseres bisherigen Rekords von Drupal 4.6 mit 523 Beiträgen von 50 Entwicklern ist. Diese neuen Beiträge sind in wichtigen Verbesserungen in der Benutzbarkeit, Drupal Kernfunktionen und Erweiterung des Drupal Entwicklungsframeworks, das Theme-Designern und Entwicklern noch mehr Flexibilität und Mächtigkeit and die Hand gibt.
And here's my translation into Spanish of the release announcement.

Cheers!
