I continue have a large list of different topics I would like to work on for PLplot, but, on the other hand, comprehensive tests are looking good (at least on Debian Buster) right now, and it has been much too long since our last release (mostly because of the "new computer" and "new distro version" issues I have been encountering). So I plan to spend the next several weeks working on the most urgent development topics I have a good chance of finishing before the soft freeze, with a proposed date of the freeze near the end of October followed by a testing and debugging period with the actual release of 5.14.0 occurring roughly in mid November. Please let me know if the general timing of that soft freeze, testing period, and subsequent release will cause you any issues with development topics you would like to push before the release of 5.14.0. But if I don't hear any strong objections along those lines, then later this week I plan to finalize that soft freeze date as October 27th (to be definite and to place it on the last Saturday in October).
This is official notice that I will be going ahead with this plan. In particular, the soft freeze date has now been finalized as of October 27th. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
