[Qgis-psc] Release post

[Régis Haubourg]

Good catch, and indeed there is some confusion around about when 3.4
becomes LTR.
I rephrased the changelog, using the term of "LTR candidate":

The first long-term release (LTR) candidate of QGIS 3. QGIS 3.4 just
> released. It will become the next LTR in january 2019, after five
> consolidation point releases (3.4.5).

http://changelog.qgis.org/en/qgis/version/3.4-LTR/

Is that better?
