I'm not real familiar with FBSD but that sounds (especially the
backported word) like what was being avoided in dfly. Also, what does
that provide that this doesn't?
1.0-STABLE
1.1-STABLE
....when 1.0-WORKING is a viable release the 1.1-STABLE tag is made
to match, and 1.1-WORKING is revised until updates are slipped
to 1.1-STABLE or released in 1.2-STABLE. No reason not to update
1.0-WORKING and 1.0-STABLE as appropriate.
