Hi guys,

I ask your suggestions about release management.

One thing that is proving to be a good decision was the creation of the
'next' branch. We're able to control what's going to 'master' better
with it. But right now, we have our release tags referencing commits in
master:

0.14.0 -> commit in master
0.14.1 -> commit in master

So on and so forth...

Now with Fedora packaging (and possibly other use cases), it is
necessary that we extend the life cycle of a release, by having release
based branches, say 0.14, and we would cherry pick fixes from master for
an extended period of time, so we can release 0.14.2, 0.14.3,... so on
and so forth.

I'm inclined to go ahead and start doing it, but I'd like to hear your
opinion about it.

Cheers,

Lucas
