Re: Progress towards a release

Hi,

For the next release it would be nice to branch the jdk13 version and
have a meaningful name. Maybe jdk13_1.3.0 (or jdk13_1.2.8)

The first release based on jdk14 could then use the normal sequence -
either starting with 1.4 or 2.0. It might be good to start the first
jdk14 release with 2.0.
