The point here is not about what is allowed to get into it or not but how it is going to work related to master. The point is that if we keep it as a branch and doesn't merge it into master. If we merge the stable branch into master, from time to time, users that want to go to move to master can merge master into their branch as it has a common parent and the conflicts fixed. If it is done too late, it becomes a nightmare. This is something I'd like to discuss and see how people think about the process and what way we ought to use. -- Otavio Salvador O.S.
