Today morning a problem with syncing ktown.kde.org was fixed. A propper
config.txt should be available on the kde mirrors soon (depending on the
servers sync interval listed on http://download.kde.org/download.php)
For the next days the 4.1.0 win32 release on ktown.kde.org is synced
every hour from www.winkde.org - so if a package is added to
www.winkde.org it should be quickly on ktown.kde.org and some time later
visible on the kde mirrors
