<p>Simon,</p>
<p>What is involved in compiling screenshots and editing release
notes? I would like to get involved doing that for the 4.14
release, if possible. And would this be feasible running the
latest 19.10 Xubuntu build, or would I need to build from source?
Thank you.<br>
</p>

<div>Hi everyone,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I briefly wanted to inform you that the release team has
decided to move forward with the Xfce 4.14 pre3 release (<a href="https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/4.14/xfce_4.14pre3" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/4.14/xfce_4.14pre3</a>),
which is scheduled in a little less than two weeks from now.<br>
</div>
<div>While pre3 was optional, we had already seen several core
component maintainers opt-in for another pre-release, making
our decision an easy one. Furthermore a little additional time
to compile release notes and screenshots for the tour cannot
hurt.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We're still aiming for the Xfce 4.14 final release to take
place in the first half of August, so nothing has changed with
respect to our release roadmap (<a href="https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/4.14/roadmap" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/4.14/roadmap</a>).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If anyone from the community wants to support the final
release by editing release notes, compiling screenshots etc
please get in touch! Most of the people doing these things are
also busy fixing bugs and releasing components, so helping
hands are more than welcome.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers</div>
