Both merge requests have now landed, so I'd like to start the process.

For this purpose, I've created a new milestone "Xwayland-23.2.0":
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/milestones/16

And pushed the  preparation work in a merge request:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/1132

(** Not ** to be merged until the branch for xwayland 23.2 is created!)

As for the schedule, I would like to propose the following:

 * July 19th, 2023: Xwayland 23.2.0 RC1
 * August 2nd, 2023: Xwayland 23.2.0 RC2
 * August 16th, 2023: Xwayland 23.2.0

Cheers
Olivier
