This was discussed earlier, and we were thinking about using a branch. It
was decided that we will try without. The basic idea is that at any time
the code should be good to use. Naturally it is not always so, thus we may
need to take another try.

We have nothing against using a branch, but it is not mandatory either. At
least not for patch releases.

Tag we will naturally do, so that it is easy to know what is the exact
release version.
