I would recommend to reserve it for urgent fixes. I have made very good experiences with such a strategy. A x.y.0 release is always more buggy than the stable release that it replaces, so as a user I want to get the same amount of stability back as soon as possible. As a developer I expect that urgent issues will appear after a few days or weeks, since many users wait for the final release and don't participate in beta testing. Allowing only important fixes for x.y.1 helps to get back the desired stability as quickly as possible. Once it is there, we can riak a little bit more. Georg
