what *is* the protocol for a new OE release? if one were to emulate
kernel development, it would normally involve, perhaps, starting a new
branch headed toward, say, stable/2010, where packages would slowly be
frozen and, as the release date approached, we'd see tags like "rc1",
"rc2" and so on, and a final freeze and tag of "stable/2010", no?
in the meantime, the .dev branch would chug merrily on. is that
even remotely close?
