- According to this new scheme, the next major version of Automake
(the one that had previously been labelled as "1.14") will actually

- (described in details below) but such changes can also be seen as a
- fix for the old suboptimal and somewhat confusing behaviour.

+ the last minor release, and the present one is a bug-fixing release
+ following up on that one.
