# Topics

## 1. Test branches on github, targeting buildslaves
- if one of us wants to try out "does this patch break NetBSD?  Or OpenSolaris?" it is quite cumbersome today
- shall we have special branches that are writeable for all "regular and trusted" developers which can be used to run a buildbot test?  (Maybe not automatic, but via community VPN request on buildmaster)
- other ideas welcome
- (note: vagrant would work, if we had templates for all the OSes we support, including MacOS and OpenSolaris - but I feel it's more heavy than just using the existing slaves)

## 2. Revisit our support policy for "oldstable"
- Right now we support two stable releases:
  - "stable": 2.4
  - "oldstable": 2.3
- What if we stopped supporting "oldstable" after
  - some months have passed since current "stable" release?
  - certain number of "stable" point releases have been made?
- Even moving "oldstable" to "source-only" maintenance mode would lighten the release process significantly
