[commit/www] update release schedule page...

Hello,
FYI: I just updated the release schedule page.
For our next release, currently labeled '7.4', I picked a date a bit
arbitrarily. I try to keep us on a 6-month release cycle, but with
the delays we've had with 7.3, we've already had time to accumulate
a number of interesting features.
So, I picked a late-november week for branching, followed by a first
release 2 weeks later, for a Christmas release. That's about 4 months
from now. Maybe we might even want to move it ahead? We can also keep
this date as is, and start the process early if we feel ready earlier.
Wiki page for the 7.4 release:
http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/GDB_7.4_Release
As for a possible 7.3.1 release, I guess it will depend on a number
of factors:
- Whether we get a fix for the OpenBSD problem Mark reported
- Whether we find problems with 7.3 that should and can be fixed
in a 7.3.1.
For now, given the short turn-around I'd like to have before we
start working on 7.4, we may not have a 7.3.1. But I am not ruling
this possibility out.
