Description

Our mailing list occasionally has people posting questions about the next (1.4.0) release.

It appears that the process to follow is documented on the Wiki. That page is however currently marked "(Draft)" (in the page's title), and may be outdated. This JIRA issue includes any work required to make that page an easy to follow obvious process for this (1.4.0) and future releases. I'll make a start with some edits today, but likely more edits are needed by others who are going to work on this. I've also found it more by chance only, let's link it from the README? I'll raise a PR.

Note that as I'm creating this issue, there is also a 1.4.0 related both branch and even tag. It was created 2 months ago, and does not match current JIRA issues for 1.4.0, and as far as I remember (please comment here if this is wrong!) there was never a vote approving it, and it's not available on http://fineract.apache.org. I therefore propose that we start over.

I'll also create some sub and/or linked JIRA tasks to this topic.
