There is already a next release, 4.01.  Seems the only difference
at a cursory glance is that 4.00 has a freeware license and the
newer version has the GPL.

It would be nice when you send him/her the patches to ask if the
tarball could be renamed to something like upclient-unix-4.00.tar.gz
or upclient-4.0.tar.gz even.  <sarcasm> Unless they intend it to be
for Linux-only machines in which case what the heck do we have a port
for? </sarcasm> :)
