[sr-dev] Branching 5.4 in git repository

Hello,

so far it looks pretty calm during the testing phase, some static analysis didn't reveal any new major issues (well, this is done also during development phase). Therefore, if nothing else is proposed or shows up, I am considering to create the git branch 5.4 next week on Thursday -- this branch will hold the code for 5.4.x release series. After branching 5.4, the master branch will be open again for new features. The 5.4.0 enters the release candidate phase, likely to have the first release out in 1-2 weeks after branching.

Cheers, Daniel
