Title: Fix permission: normal users were allowed to manage MKPs - not anymore
Component: WATO
Level: 2
Class: Security fix
Version: 1.4.0i1
The new MKP manager module in WATO was preconfigured in a way that a normal
monitoring user could manage MKP packages. This is considered as a bug and
now only the <tt>admin</tt> role is allowed to manage packages.

Title: Enable local asynchronous notification delivery using mknotifyd by default
Component: Notifications
Level: 2
Class: New feature
Version: 1.4.0i2
The notification deamon can be used for local asynchronous delivery and is informing you
about failed notification delivery since werk #8330 and is increasing the performance of
notifications in case the delivery of notifications takes time.
So the default delivery mechanism has been changed to use the local asynchronous delivery
in the Enterprise Edition.

Title: Alert handling: Fixed repeating error "OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor"
Component: cmc
Level: 2
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.4.0i2
This error occured when a helper was terminated or not really started and persisted
until the alert helper was restarted (e.g. with cmk -R) and prevented othr event handlers
from working correctly.

Title: Service check timeouts can now be configured individually for services
Component: cmc
Level: 2
Class: New feature
Version: 1.4.0i1
It is a good idea to keep the service check timeout values as low as possible. All past versions
could only configure this option globally. So if you had only some services needing a higher
execution time, you had to increase this global value for all your services.
Now you can use the rule set "Service check timeout (Microcore)" to control this timeout per
service. It will override the globally configured option for all matching services.
