sorry, but maybe I'm not understanding something; why do AOO400 (which
is a branch) fixes going into next release (AOO401) require another 
branch?

I committed to AOO400 because I supposed that newer (minor) releases 
were going into this branch, not into a different one.

And I don't undestand at all why branching again for 401, while we can
just use tagging to monitor minor bugfixes releases from AOO400 
branch.

I understand that a 4.1 release will incorporate new code while we can
still produce 4.0.2 on the older branch, so branching for 4.1 makes 
more sense.

with this branching tecnique, a bugfix must be sideported to every 
active branch, e.g. trunk, AOO401, AOO410 (maybe more in the future).

If I missed some guideline doc on the wiki please excuse me.

thanks,
