The first problem to solve before the ball starts rolling would be finding a release manager. I don't have enough spare time to play RM this time around but I would support the RM as far as my time allows for. Doing 1.14.3 first sounds like a good plan. This would help potential new releases managers to get bootstrapped into the process. A major release tends to involve a little bit more effort because some new problems may only show up on specific operating system platforms during -rc testing. Regards, Stefan
