Sorry if this wasn't communicated enough. We shared the plan on an earlier
email thread and presented in 2.6 kickoff meeting.

Here is the process involved :
The flow will be:

   1. Create the OTA branch - gecko and gaia
   2. We uplift patches to this branch. Only the ones that fixes smoke test
   / foxfooder blockers
   3. OTA update is launched once the branch passes all the smoke tests /
   foxfooder tests
   4. We update the OTA branch with current master content and back to #2

So, this is going to be a close copy of Master.

Yes, strings will be the same on Master and the OTA branch. In terms of
frequency - Master will be copied to OTA once we have ship an update. It's
not on any regular cadence, but we want to keep the time interval short.

For more questions, please email or ping.
