Hi FreeBSD -STABLE users,

I've just posted the schedule for FreeBSD 14.3 to the FreeBSD website.  It
will be roughly the same as the schedule for 14.2-RELEASE plus 6 months.

Just to put this in context: The 13.5 release cycle (last release from the
13-STABLE branch) is starting soon with a release due in March; then we'll
do 14.3 in April-June; and the second half of this year will be dedicated
to getting 15.0 out the door.
