So the idea is that, if we have a newer major release line, we can release the previous major releases directly from the 'developing' branch?
I think for branch-1 it is fine, as we are not likely to backport any big new feature to 1.x any more. And does this mean that 1.5 is the last minor release line for 1.x?
