Fair enough, that makes sense, though I suspect that most
companies/organisations that would use *any* tree would want to keep up
with security releases - making the "release" tree unused - unless the
proposal was that anything that may need essential (e.g. security)
patches went in a separate tree (sorry if this is the case, I missed the
start of this discussion).
