Up to know, we've been adding features and bugs on the branch and then
merging them in.  Going forward, I think we should just focus on
bug-fixes on the branch and mostly implement a feature-freeze, which
will promote stability and encourage people who want the new stuff
onto the trunk.  We don't have to be fanatical about this -- if there
is a great feature we can put in w/o compromising stability, that's
fine, but I think our default should be bug-fixes only.
