Re: Stable 5 development.

 

I think for v4 we forked when there was agreement that all was good;
new features
like the new 3D viewer and 3D plugins simply had to be developed separately
and merged after the v4 fork. For me this is the only process which makes sense;
forking so early on is a nuisance to everyone including any devs who are working
on features intended to be merged post-release.
