Glen, as the RE's media interface to the world, you continue to amaze in your ability to maintain transparency, clarity and honesty in your timely status information ensuring that the community has clear upgrade/installation paths and visibility to all relevant issues so they (we) can plan and schedule appropriately. The team should be commended as its clear that a "release" is not just dropping the source at a distribution location for the world to consume; rather the release kit has to be bundled and rolled into cloud services such as AWS, Azure; installed and tested upon all supported platforms amd64, aarch64, MIPS, powerpc...; distribution media created for iso's, virtual images,... and then to co-ordinate that they all function properly via the distribution points and finally announced. A huge amount of co-ordination and communication work, thank-you for your substantial contribution over the last 15 years and I'm sure we look forward to many more. :) Its also clear why a formal announcement is the trigger to say, 'everything has been confirmed to work properly; you have a release, now go for it!' A cohesive team that delivers a great operating system for the world to enjoy must be very fulfilling. Kind regards, Dewayne PS The (draft?) release notes for 14.0 are excellent - clear, concise and nicely hyperlinked to relevant information.
