Hi,

the 2.11.0.RC1 milestone is published. We should use this one for testing the 
upcoming 2.11.0 release.

I propose the following approach for continuing work on Xtext:

 * I’ll create “release_2.11.0” branches on all repositories, from which the 
release will be built in two weeks. All changes (important bugfixes) that 
should be included in the release need to be cherry-picked onto these branches.

 * I’ll switch the “master” branches to 2.12.0-SNAPSHOT.

 * When the release is done, I’ll create “maintenance_2.11” branches from which 
we can derive maintenance releases (2.11.1 etc.)

Cheers
  Miro
