Wonderful Jan! In addition to this it may be worth posting items on the forums to announce new branches or the like. Maybe we need an ez announce forum for official announcements (not quite front page news items...). I note in your document you state there is only one active stable branch at a time. If there was such a forum announcement declaring the 3.2 branch, for example, it would be clear that the 3.1 stable is effectively closed (subject to security fixes...). Same applies for 3.0. This allows users/developers to use the branch they are interested in and leave the trunk alone unless they really must use it. Personally i update 3.1 and now 3.2 regularly. 3.1 to see if anything has occurred there that i need to use, and now im working with 3.2 i am testing to see how simple it is to upgrade, what breaks, etc. Hmm, this kind of suggests that if branches are not being actively worked on a handy tarball of 3.X might be linked to? :) Good document.
