One could probably develop with branch-1-8, but that looks like a waste of time for new feature. branch-1-8 tracks only bug fixes, so the patch would have to be adapted to HEAD before it can be installed there. Regarding joint patches, this is delicate because the FSF requires copyright assignments for significant changes. -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz
