Stage 4 date

Stage 4 date

[waffl3x]

https://gcc.gnu.org/develop.html#timeline
The date for stage 4 is listed as the 8th on here, is that date final?
There is at least 1 patch pending (mine) that is complete but Jason
Merril hasn't been active for a few days. He had expressed to me that
he expected the date to be next week on the 14th. Is it possible to
push back the date for stage 4 a little bit? I've been working hard on
my patch and would be very disappointed if it did not make it in for
GCC14.

Note there is generally allowances made for patches that were posted 
before the deadline, but are still going through the review/iterate process.

Also, not really sure why the stage 4 start is relevant to this patch,
it is a new feature, not a bug fix, which admittedly had some versions
posted already during stage 1, so if Jason accepts it soon I have no problem
with it getting in (in fact I'd appreciate if it got in soon), but end of
stage 3 is deadline for patches which are fixing bugs but not regression bugs.

Gotcha, in addition to the other clarifications that were made on IRC this
makes sense. I was worried over nothing! Everything has been submitted in so I
think it should be in soon.

Thanks for the responses, and all the patience I've been shown the past months.
