Changes to .../trunk with be CTR
Changes to .../6.1.x/trunk will be RTC
As per the previously published plan, I will create tomcat/tc6.1.x/trunk and tomcat/trunk from the 6.0.15 tag. I plan to do this sometime on Friday
afternoon GMT.

Why Friday? Shouldn't we wait until 6.0.15 (or 6.0.15 + n) is voted stable?

Contrawise, why wait, and why a tag?  Usually most efforts (in order to
preserve history) branch from trunk or branches, whereas tags/* reflect
an endpoint (end of history).  Simply branch from 6.0.x unless there are
dirty secrets buried in there :)
one reason we would wait, is cause there are no ongoing efforts. at least none that are documented, and as Mark said two months ago, "I don't see a need for a separate 6.0.x and 6.1.x development at this point. I have yet to see a convincing technical argument that there is something sufficiently new and/or different to justify this overhead."

we still haven't documented what this "ongoing effort would be" nor have we agreed on it. From what it sounds like right now, and the technical argument and the reason to get a trunk, would be to have more liberty adding in fixes and patches,and then have an easier way to propose it back to be a fix in 6.0.
