Sounds good to me. I have attached an updated copy of doc/releases.md,
which contains some notes I made during the last release. There were a
number of missing or poorly documented steps.
OK, thanks I will look at that.
Cheers,

Hi,
So it looks like we will do a 1.3.0 release.
I propose a fairly quick timeline since there isn't a lot of
critical stuff waiting to go in it. The only thing that I am aware
of is the longstanding problem for macOS USB support and I think
we have a partial solution for that which should push them on.
Allan did the release last time, and perhaps I can go through the
process this time so that I am familiar. Are you OK with that Allan?
1) Code freeze: 1 week from now (28th January), I will create a
release branch and MRs targeted for the release should target that
branch. Anything else not intended for the release can still
target master. I will send out an email asking for translations
after regenerating po files. During this time, we will not
normally accept functional enhancements but exceptions will be
considered in an emergency or if it is very safe.
2) Release: 2 weeks later (11th February) we will cut the release.
I will also do a PPA release for our Ubuntu users.
Cheers,
Ralph
