Hi,
I'd say "double yes":
1) yes, I do develop new things in master first, then backport to stable
branch (it's sometimes only about applying, sometimes real backport)
2) yes, most likely because stable branches are feature-frozen (plus
couple more freezes), thus you violate a policy by doing new features
there. :) Of course, one may define what a new feature is in
the first place.
Bye,
Milan
