Mickael Istria commented on MNG-6642:
-------------------------------------
FWIW, I think maintenance branches really add a lot of complexity and cost to
the project maintenance.
As a consumer and user, I would rather see Maven project getting more into a
rolling 1-click release process, just answering the question "is the current
state any better than previous release" and be ready to release whenever there
is a request and state is not worth (ie all test pass). That would IMO provide
much more value to everyone and once setup, it wouldn't cost anything to run a
release. For example, although there are still known bugs on master, if those
are not regressions, I don't really get why they would be blocking a highly
requested release.
The Eclipse SDK (Platform, JDT, PDE) recently dropped intensive usage of
maintenance branch, and it was a huge relief for the contributors, maintainers,
users... as more effort were put in master and value was delivered much faster
and the project attracted new contributors thanks to that.
