Intent to roll Subversion 1.9.5 / 1.8.17 (was: Re: Status review for 1.8.17 and 1.9.5)

Hi everyone,

Our last Subversion 1.9.4 release happened about six months ago, and we
have several important fixes waiting to be released.

I plan to roll 1.9.5 this Thursday, on October 20th. So please wrap up
any nomination/voting for things that you'd like included.

I would be happy to roll both of the tarballs, if that's what everyone
feels like doing. But just to be sure — are there any other opinions about
also releasing 1.8.17?

Thanks,
