Dear all,

Thank you to all those who voted and provided us with valuable feedback on
the future direction of gem5. Voting is now closed and I've tallied the
votes. There appears to be a clear favored direction:

- The master shall be stable (13 votes to 3).

- gem5 will be released 3 times a year (11 votes to 3).

Given this result we will proceed with the release of gem5 19 in the coming
weeks, to exist on the stable master branch, with development moved towards
a new "develop" branch. I shall update the relevant documentation and will
send email updates as and when this is incorporated. We do not intend to
release gem5 19 with much fanfare; we consider it more of a "baseline"
release of gem5, as it exists now, in a relatively stable state. gem5 20
will be released in approximately 3 months time.

Kind regards,
Bobby
