+# Main branch is Airflow 3
+
+The main branch is for development of Airflow 3.
+Airflow 2.10.x releases will be cut from `v2-10-stable` branch.
+
+# Contributors
+
+The following section explains which branches you should target your PR to
+
+## Developing for providers and Helm chart
+
+PRs should target `main` branch.
+Make sure your code is only about Providers or Helm chart.
+Avoid mixing core changes into the same PR
+
+## Developing for Airflow 3 and 2.10.x / 2.11.x
+
+If the PR is relevant for both Airflow 3 and 2 it should target `main` branch.
+
+Note: The mental model of Airflow 2.11 is bridge release for Airflow 3.
+As a result, Airflow 2.11 is not planned to introduce new features other than 
ones relevant as bridge release for Airflow 3.
+That said, we recognize that there may be exceptions.
+If you believe a specific feature is must have for Airflow 2.11 you need to 
raise this as discussion thread in the mailing list.
+Points to address to make your case:
+
+1. You must clarify what is the urgency (why it can't wait for Airflow 3)
+2. You need be willing to deliver the feature for both main branch and Airflow 
2.11 branch
+3. You must be willing to provide support future bug fixes as needed.
+
+Points to consider on how PMC members evaluate the request of exception:
+
+1. Feature impact. Is it really urgent? How many are affected?
+2. Are there any workarounds?
+3. Scope of change. Both in code lines / number of files and components 
changed.
+4. Is the feature at the heart of Airflow (scheduler, dag parser) or 
peripheral.
+5. Identity of the requester. Is the request from/supported by a member of the 
community?
+6. Similar previous cases approved.
+7. Other considerations that may raise by PMC members depending on the case.
+
+## Developing for Airflow 3
+
+PRs should target `main` branch.
+
+## Developing for Airflow 2.10.x
+
+PR should target `v2-10-test` branch. When cutting a new release for 2.10 
release manager
+will sync `v2-10-test`  branch to `v2-10-stable` and cut the release from the 
stable branch.
+PR should never target `v2-10-stable` unless specifically instructed by 
release manager.
+
+## Developing for Airflow 2.11
+
+Version 2.11 is planned to be cut from `v2-10-stable` branch.

Review Comment:
   To we need to put PRs for 2.11 "on hold" so that they are not mixed-up with 
other patches while we are maintaining 2.10 (and not ready for all stuff being 
ready in 2.11)?
