📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The project version changed from 1.13.3 to 1.14.0 in CMake and Autotools configuration. The changelog heading now identifies release 1.14.0 with the date 2026-09-08.

Changes

Release metadata

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Version and changelog update CMakeLists.txt, configure.ac, Changes.md	The project version is updated to 1.14.0 in both build systems. The changelog heading includes the release version and date.

Priority: ⬇️ Low — Defer the release metadata update because it is a narrow version and changelog-heading change with no supplied elevated product-impact or external-urgency evidence.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~2 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 0077f

The release metadata updates both build versions to 1.14.0 and dates the changelog, but the changelog heading currently violates the repository's Markdown heading rule and may fail documentation linting. Address the heading or its lint configuration before release automation relies on this change.
