That's pretty much what he was saying.  Instead of creating a 4.1
branch for new development, we create a new 4.0 branch off of the
current trunk for minor releases.  Additional RC branches can be made
off of that 4.0 branch for QA testing.  The main trunk ('HEAD') will
be for the latest development.

Diagrammatically:


(now)----------------------------------------- 4.1.0-cvs
        \
         `------------------------------------ 4.0.8-cvs
            \                 \
             `---- 4.0.6       `---- 4.0.7
