I think I prefer Richard's suggestion of not branching until we're
ready to make the .0 release. The effect should be the same except
that people don't have to deal with checking patches in on the branch
vs. the trunk until after 4.3.0 goes out.
Sure, I think it boils down to the same thing from a conceptual point of
view, but perhaps the nitty gritty details are easier if you keep it as
mainline so we dont have to check everything into 2 branches. Bottom
line is you freeze development until its time to release.
