Sorry to rise the question again, but now that functional testing is about to start, I believe decision on the subject has already been made.
Vincent et all,
Now that xwiki is 1.0, are there any plans to have a bugfixing-only branch?
1.1M1 anouncement mentions both bugfixes and new features/changes. While the
former is good for stability, the latter may not be so.
For me as a person who will need to support xwiki installation it is an
important question.
Thanks,
Pavel
