there’s
always 3 branches. For example when we release 7.3, we
have stable =
latest

the new
N.4 release is released (i.e. N.4.1) and then do the switch.
* Proposal 2: Keep previous N-1.4.x LTS till the next cycle’s first
stable
release is done (i.e. N.0) and then do the
switch.
Proposal 2 is safer (it allows more time for having at least 2 bugfix
releases of the N-1.4). It means a bit more work since it means
continuing
to merge bugfixes to N-1.4.x a bit longer.
I personally have a preference for Proposal 2.
