To address this, I added the text I posted here earlier in a separate
commit:
r1869777

To see all of the above, visit:
https://subversion-staging.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.14.html

All thoughts, suggestions, and improvements are welcome.

In particular there is a TODO item to figure out and describe which
versions of Python 3.x we support in 1.14.

Cheers,
Nathan
