Just to clarify: What I had planned for 1.3 (and what we already did for 1.2) is to fork a -next branch, finish 1.3 on the master branch, and then merge -next back into master after we'd be done with 1.3. I'm not sure what you mean by "adding things on the branch should be harder, not easier" -- I think it is already a bit harder because it is a branch :) We can of course do a v1.3 branch instead and continue developing on master, but shouldn't we then create branches (glorified tags) for the older releases as well? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: virtio-dev-unsubscribe@lists.oasis-open.org For additional commands, e-mail: virtio-dev-help@lists.oasis-open.org
