Due to Linux 4.14 being quite large and the pace of changes still higher than he would prefer, he's still considering warranting a 4.14-rc8 release before going final rather than ending at 4.14-rc7. Thus depending upon if there's an RC8, the final Linux 4.14 LTS kernel will be officially released in two to three weeks.
Torvalds' brief Linux 4.14-rc6 release announcement can be read on the kernel mailing list.
