So if you have immediate bug fixes, we'll try to apply them to both master and master-next. And then continue to use master-next to stage the policy changes (or anything else that requires a bit more 'soak' time) before merging. I'd like to try to get 'master' of meta-selinux fully synced and working with the 'master' of Poky around the time of Poky's release (within a week or so of the release at least).. then we can branch and let the master continue to flow with any "new" work. (It's a plan, I'm not sure if it'll happen or not.) If anyone has any concerns let me know.. otherwise I think this is the plan! --Mark
