What's New in Qubes 4 (Linux Journal)

Linux Journal has a look at Qubes 4, which is due to be released in the next month or so. It has undergone a refactoring of sorts. "Another major change in Qubes 4 relates to the GUI VM manager. In past releases, this program provided a graphical way for you to start, stop and pause VMs. It also allowed you to change all your VM settings, firewall rules and even which applications appeared in the VM's menu. It also provided a GUI way to back up and restore VMs. With Qubes 4, a lot has changed. The ultimate goal with Qubes 4 is to replace the VM manager with standalone tools that replicate most of the original functionality."
