I also wonder how that works. For example, I presume there is an attempt to ensure most of the ports a building successfully prior to the quarterly branch?
A gnome3 dependency stopped building the other day, meaning the gnome3 metapackage was no longer available to install. Would be a bit harsh to branch a quarterly branch at that point. If it did, can people then still commit fixes and security updates to the quarterly branch, or is it frozen?
