Well, normally, I'd say yes. I dislike having multiple branches with
active development because it causes so much headache at merge time.
But it seems like the majority of developers are going to be working
on an intermediate version -- not the stable version for end users,
not the out in the fringes version that O & S and anybody else would
use.
I guess it depends on how "experimental" the 0.5 version is going to
be. The main reason we made the experimental branch in the first place
was that the 0.4 that Oskar had was so ab0rken that it would slow up
the rest of development if we had to deal with it.
So, I'd probably say that we should cross that bridge when we come to
it.
