Hi Mike,

One of the strengths of GitFlow is that all release branches merge back
fully so you can't miss fixes. Additionally all releases are tagged on
master so there is a clear record of where all releases were cut from.
Hot fixes such as we currently back port are created in a place to be
immediately applied to both master and develop such that the next release,
whichever it is, will certainly get the fix. These seem like improvements
over the "dangling" release branch model that we've used before.
