Hi,

All merges are done already, so all changes required for Qt 5.1.0 need 
to be pushed to the 'release' branch from now on.

qtquickcontrols, qtsensors, qtserialport and qtx11extras didn't have a 
release branch, so in that case it was created out of the current stable 
branch.

Changes in the release branch need to be reviewed as usual, but only the 
release team <https://codereview.qt-project.org/#admin,group,61> can 
stage them.

Last time staging once a day -every morning- worked quite well, so I'd 
propose the same now.

Changes in the current 'stable' branch will be part of a future Qt 5.1.1

Cheers,
