Sven,
For a release we need an RM and we have none for 4.17.3. This would also
not include any features at all. Any new features always go into a .o
release and fixes on top of that.
We always have a conflict between people that want stability and people
that want quick turnover.
tl;dr what we do not have is someone to take care of 4.17.3
