According to the 14.0-RELEASE schedule, the code slush in main and the freeze to the KBI for 14.0 was scheduled for April 25, 2023. As some of you may have noticed, that did not happen. First, and most importantly for 14.0, is the status of the OpenSSL update to version 3. This in itself is reason to delay the schedule until some tangible progress has been made. Yes, some have expressed interest in helping in this area, however at this moment, this is the key blocker. Second is the status of the branch and how it pertains to the recent upstream merge from OpenZFS. Although block_cloning is disabled by default, there have been other regressions discovered (and fixed), but as a whole, I do not feel that we have a solid understanding of the regressions about which we do not know. There is no feasible way we are going to make the branch point of stable/14 in time, with that scheduled for May 12, 2023 with the above points. That said, this is not an all-inclusive list, but the more major items on our radar at the moment. A more up-to-date schedule for the 14.0 release will be published in the near future, though nothing is yet set in stone. Thank you for your patience, and for any help in getting us through these outstanding items. Glen On behalf of: re@
