[Rivet] Rivet 1.8.3 release and arXiv manual update plan?

[Frank Siegert]

Hi Andy,

I'd prefer if we could leave the arXiv entry at the CPC version at
least until it's published, to avoid any interference in between. I
haven't heard back from a referee yet unfortunately, but will let you
know as soon as I have. After that I would suggest to keep updating
the current arXiv entry with updated manuals like we used to, at least
for 1.x series updates. I don't have a strong opinion on whether we
should have a new manual series for 2.x or continue updating the old
one.

Cheers,
Frank
