Help with CloudStack 4.14 press release
Hi all, Sally,
We should be in a position to release CloudStack 4.14 (new LTS) at the end
of this week and I would kindly like to ask for a help with the Press
Release.
Bellow is the usual announcement we do via mailing lists - the links/URLs
below do NOT exist yet but will be in effect once we actually release the
4.14
#######
*The Apache Software Foundation Announces Apache**®** CloudStack**®** v4.14*

fixes since 4.13. Highlights include:

Hello Sven and PMC --I've made some minor edits to the press release,

Please forward any final additions or corrections by 6PM ET (UTC -4)

Do let me know if we need more time. Has anyone been in touch with
Rich regarding Feathercast?

Re: Help with CloudStack 4.14 press release
Posted by Sally Khudairi <sk...@apache.org>.
Hello Sven and PMC --I've made some minor edits to the press release, and are ready to announce pending Sven's signoff of the tweaks to his quote.
Please forward any final additions or corrections by 6PM ET (UTC -4) on Monday so we can announce on Tuesday morning.
Do let me know if we need more time. Has anyone been in touch with Rich regarding Feathercast?
Many thanks,
Sally
