Topics

• After v2.1.0 release, should we merge from master to the v2.x branch?
  • Only if there are no backwards compatibility issues (!)
  • This would allow us to close the divergence/gap from master to v2.x, but keep life in the v2.x series (which is attractive to some organizations)
  • Alternatively, we might want to fork and create a new 3.x branch.
