Actually I was relying on that page as well. While it would be great if =
5.4 branch were blocked, as we would branch 7.0 ... disregarding were it =
wrong or not, IMHO 14th September should be the date. Even if the page =
is wrong, the info is public, people might rely on it. It doesn't =
enforce 5.4 to release without the reason, but it gives room to announce =
the EOL properly.
