It’s Sunday afternoon, and this week I somehow kept my wits together long enough to keep track of the day of the week, so the release isn’t randomly delayed. Will wonders never cease?
Anyway, nothing very special seems to have happened this last week, so as expected the final 7.3 is out, and thus tomorrow the merge window for 7.4 opens. Except I’m on my annual family vacation, so instead of merging anything first thing in the morning, I’ll spend most of the day on a boat and under water. I’ll get back to merging in the afternoon, but I expect my schedule to be a bit unusual for a while.
I hope I can still complete the merge window in the usual two weeks, but it may be that I’ll end up with an extra week of merging just to catch up.
Note that that extra week doesn’t mean that I’ll accept pull requests that come in past the usual timing - the rules are still that what gets merged should be ready before the merge window opens, not some kind of late development during the merge window. So don’t try any shenanigans.
Below is the shortlog for the last week of 7.3 development. It looks fairly spread out, no real pattern to it: random fixes all over.

Is this that release with like 200 CVEs getting fixed?
Is it that “AI” nonsense?
