Active development of new features (such as substantially improved
performance on JSP pages, and the new admin webapp) are taking place in
the 4.1.x development tree. Because there is lots of new code here, the
risk of new bugs is somewhat higher than on a stable release.
Bugfix maintenance releases continue in the 4.0.x development tree so that
people running production apps have a lower risk way to incorporate fixes
for existing bugs -- but new features only go into the new version.

Same thing that happens in most major software development projects --
overlapping development cycles. Consider Apache (1.3.x versus 2.0.x),
Linux (2.4 versus 2.5), and pretty much any other large scale product, and
you'll see the same thing.
