It depends on what you want to do, "branch out" old releases and let their
branch "die" slowly, or "branch in" (merge) new ones when they become
mainstream.... (for example, if we think about branch-ins when 2.1 becomes
"main version" we'll have to merge it back into head)...

Personally, I prefer "branching out" old releases... But anyway when
subversion will come, there's not going to be this problem anymore :-)
