I have ordered the items in each section.  My next job is to add markup
and indenting to the XML.

FYI, the PG 14 release item count is much higher than usual:

	release-7.4:  263
	release-8.0:  230
	release-8.1:  174
	release-8.2:  215
	release-8.3:  214
	release-8.4:  314
	release-9.0:  237
	release-9.1:  203
	release-9.2:  238
	release-9.3:  177
	release-9.4:  211
	release-9.5:  193
	release-9.6:  214
	release-10:  189
	release-11:  170
	release-12:  180
	release-13:  178
	release-14:  220

PG 14 is a 23% increase over our previous release.  I think the cause is
either more hackers/sponsors, Covid, or both.
