In case of the Linux kernel those stable branches are maintained by dedicated volunteers. Without those volunteers there wouldn't be any long-term-maintained Linux kernel branches. If you (Luigi and/or Alex [Neundorf] and/or Patrick) are willing to maintain a stable frameworks branch then nobody will stop you from doing so. On the contrary, I'm sure many people would be grateful for your initiative and all the work you put into maintaining such a branch. But please don't expect other people (in particular the small number of frameworks maintainers) to do this job for you. Remember, that in KDE (as in any other volunteer organization) you should never say "we should do foo" unless you mean "I volunteer to [help with] do[ing] foo". Regards, Ingo
