(Just an follow up, not sure if the previous mail went through anyways;
to make sure I'll CC Robert and Piotr, please feel free to forward the
mail if it didn't make it to the list)

Soft Freeze actually starts March 15th, and from this date on 
"No large/disruptive changes" are no longer appropiate.
This could include a "new upstream release" 1.4.0, not sure if
you would categorize the chanes as "large" or "disruptive" (or
"risky" to break packages using log4cxx.)

Alternatively, I *can* package a RC and then do the final upload after
March 15th. (I will be able to reserve e.g March 14th for this)

(My least preferred way would be to cherry-pick commits you think must
go into Debian13, but that's generally a possibility too.)

Yes, it would be useful to have a release.
I guess that there is no SONAME bump; We should aim to be in testing on
April 15th, so if a new release, to allow me some days to prepare a new
release, it would be nice to have it start of April.
