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
     1. some months have passed since current "stable" release?
     2. certain number of "stable" point releases have been made?
   • Even moving "oldstable" to "source-only" maintenance mode would lighten the release process significantly
