As indicated in a preceding mail (http://goo.gl/R1r1V), the release of 1.0.4 unfortunately shipped with two important regressions. The Cassandra team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Cassandra version 1.0.5 that comes to fix those two issues[1], but is identical to 1.0.4 otherwise.
Cassandra 1.0.5 can be de downloaded in the usual places, i.e: http://cassandra.apache.org/download/ We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by 1.0.4. As always, please pay attention to the release notes[2] and Let us know[3] if you were to encounter any problem. Have fun!
