We didn't update to 10.14.0 because of regressions that were fixed in 10.14.2 
and 10.14.4. There's currently an issue in the omnibus packaging of 
10.14.4-1, so we're waiting to update the bento-built boxes until that is 
resolved (should be this week). 

On Friday, the following boxes were updated with 10.12.0:

opscode-centos-5.8-i386.box
opscode-centos-5.8.box
opscode-centos-6.3-i386.box
opscode-centos-6.3.box
opscode-ubuntu-10.04-i386.box
opscode-ubuntu-10.04.box
opscode-ubuntu-12.04-i386.box
opscode-ubuntu-12.04.box

As soon as the omnibus packaging is fixed for 10.14.4, we'll update with that.

We'll also post more widely when these updates are done so folks are aware. 
As it is now, if you already have a box installed in your vagrant environment 
(~/.vagrant.d/boxes), it won't be updated until you specifically tell it to, 
usually by removing the existing box and letting Vagrant get the new one.
