To help make the stable branch more active than it has been in the past, 
I'd like to split the stable branch into a separate tree to allow the 
tree to develop a life of its own over time.

I'd like to begin this process with 0.14 and as such, have created a new 
stable tree at git://git.qemu.org/qemu-stable-0.14.git.

Justin Forbes has volunteered to help collect patches for this tree.  
The same stable rules still apply: patches should go into master first 
except for rare exceptions where that's feasible.

I plan on making the stable-0.14 branch in git be a mirror of the 
stable-0.14.git tree so it shouldn't really affect most people.  
However, I probably won't set this up until after next week.

Regards,

Anthony Liguori
