This is a release of Cypht containing all development work since the last release about 2 years ago. There have been over 450 code commits since 1.3.0 so this is a massive release full with new features, enhancements and fixes.
The list of the commits is accessible in the CHANGES file. Or you can access via github.com/cypht-org/cypht/commits/1.4.x
Going forward, we will produce more frequent releases (each 4 to 8 months). Also, each stable release will have its own development branch named after the version it represents. 1.4.x will accommodate hot-fixes until the next stable release happens.
