+New Branching strategy short version:
+
+The branch 'master' will be the upcoming major release (e.g. R15).
+Branch from this to submit patches for the next major release.
+(New features and major changes)
+
+New branch 'maint' will be introduced AFTER R15, and will be the next maintenance release (e.g. R15B01)
+Branch from this to submit patches for the next maintenance release.
+(Bug fixes and minor changes)
+
+
+The 'pu' branch will be based on 'master' and we will later add a 'maint-pu' for the 'maint' branch.
