Due to how the release cycle turned out, most new major features got pushed to v1.14, and this one is a rather iterative release focused on making various things faster, quashing bugs, and general polish.
Still though, faster GC, lower startup latency, better interrupt handling, new REPL features, and faster package mangement are all great things. I'm especially happy that the `[sources]` section of a package is now applied recursively when you `add` a non-registered package.
