we don't release on a fixed schedule, and most of the time we do not
plan releases far ahead. No timeline is currently set for 0.7.4.
However, looking at the current set of changes, I think a
release somewhere around late May, early June may be good bet.

0.7.3 was officially released on April 21st. The R 4.2.0 variant was
added on April 30.

It's still quite fresh, although we've also made some nice progress,
since.

This is harder to answer than one might think: A while before each
release, development is "branched" into separate lines: one to
become the release, and receiving only conservative changes,
another to become the release after that, and also receiving more new
features. The second branch corresponds to the nightlies.

Of course both are still connected in that bug fixes and some other
small changes are made to both branches in parallel. I'd have to look up
the date of branching, but that would have been early to mid April.

This list always gets a notification of new releases. Alternatively,
here's an RSS stream you could subscribe to:
