Tellico 3.4 released

[Robby Stephenson]

As was kindly pointed out to me, I uploaded the wrong tarball. It was the
3.3.5 release, just renamed 3.4 and overwritten. I'm going to fire my whole
QA department. :)

As of 22:05 UTC, I uploaded the correct release file.

MD5: f46ab546ac335a9107c2130faea1fb9d

Very sorry for the mistake!
