Okay - I can see POS and ProjectMrg and a few others in Special Purpose, but these are really general applications, i.e. they are not industry specific. Maybe one could look into creating seed data per industry application instead of creating a branch.

Is it possible This is what specialpurpose is supposed to be. To create a branch we really need contributor(s) commitment and at least a committer. BTW the jQuery is there only for history purpose, it has been merged back to the trunk, same for addbirt and multitenant20100310. The others have not been yet merged or are abandonned.
