Google have now made it so that the effects on appstore submission are 
on a fixed date each year - August 31st - 
https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/11926878?hl=en.

So the release of Android 14 won't affect the ability to submit apps or 
updates.

We'll update the engine and s/b appropriately by the August deadline 
though :)

So 10-dp-5 includes all (maintenance related changes) in 9.6.9 - so also 
contains the updates to Android (and iOS) version targets.

Warmest Regards,
