Although it is is nice to have release branches,
I am afraid that we will not have enough man power to maintain it.
Considering the whole Etoile is still under heavy development,
my suggestion is that we only tag the -stable as release (under /
tag in svn).
If there are bugs, we fix in -stable and tag it as bug-fixed release.
In that way, we only need to maintain -trunk and -stable mostly.
in other word, people have to be more careful about what they put
in -stable.
In the short term, I agree. Back-porting fixes will be too much effort.
If we keep release branches open, however, then if anyone wants to
maintain a very stable release, then they can. Some people are still
back-porting security fixes to FreeBSD 2.x...
