I don't follow this comment at all. 1.2 does not necessarily have everything
1.1 has in it. They may even diverge when we get down to the bugfix version.
Releases are tagged from release branches which are split from trunk.
Sometimes we apply fixes to the release branches that we do not
"forward-port" to trunk or newer release branches. It's all there in the
version control system. Can you clarify?
