I would like to have all the CloudStack contributor companies and their sponsored developers give their best to help make Apache CloudStack releases more “stable" by testing and better release-participation so when they fork out commercial distributions from opensource ones they’ll have to give less effort in testing/maintaining their commercial distributions. I guess the git-flow thing is pretty much not what we want “as it is”, and we want to be able to support both opensource and commercial branches. So I started a thread on the "cherry-pick vs merge --ff and getting release branch more participation” workflow which I think would also try to address my above suggestion and that you commit and test on opensource repo/branch first -- which I think no ones has objected till now. I’ll start a voting thread on it soon.
