Hi Jacopo, David
I would just as happily submit patches for releases as I do for the
trunk, and perhaps we should just assume the community can handle
it until we are proven otherwise? I would expect that we could
handle the first release easily, and it would just get harder as
the number of releases increases?
This is exactly what I'm hoping for... and I agree that things would
get harder as the number of release branches increases so we'd want
to do something to minimize this. Like I mentioned in the email I
just wrote a somewhat happy medium might be doing a new release
branch from the trunk once per year.

Of course it would also be great to have a real 'stable' releases
(with patches for them etc...) as you are suggesting (and I really
think we could implement the two approaches simultaneously since
what I've proposed could be the basis of a real release
management) but I'm not sure the community will really maintain
them...
