[Development] [HEADS UP] new branching scheme: 5.3 branches created, stable deprecated

[Hausmann Simon]

Whether or not next is a better name than dev is your opinion, it isn't necessarily a fact. I for one like dev and find it a name better than next.

We could run a poll and see what name comes out and change to that. But is it really worth the effort and disruption?‎ I'm not convinced that it is.

I think 'next' work tell people, it's the next release, for now it's unstable.
But 'dev' don't tell people anything.
Because all of the branch should being develop state. except the release branch, e.g. '5.3.x'.
Why this 'dev' branch is special?
Why don't use a better name?

I don't see the point in renaming from "dev" to "next". It doesn't buy
anything new, other than confusion.
