So what's the official vision for branching UC? Right now the Bazaar version is a moving target, and contains the latest and greatest. While everyone is off testing the RC, the Bazaar version now has many changes and fixes which are not being subject to general testing yet - inevitably, the next RC is going to reveal some new bugs that have been added in all these changes since the last RC. At some point the RC needs to be branched off and frozen so it can be tested and debugged by the general populace while progress is still being made separately on the HEAD version. In other words, I'm arguing for a fork NOW so that 1.0 can be as stable and bug free as possible.

I don't understand what happens after 1.0 - does the Bazaar version turn into a D6 port project, is the D6 port branched off of the 1.0 release, or is the D6 version going to emerge full-blown in some other repository? Where do new features get added in, the D5 version or the D6 version or both? How long are the two versions going to track each other? What about contributed modules?
