Hey!

They are as of right now NOT supposed to have stable/* branches - the
idea being that trunk *client should always work with trunk openstack as
well as previous stables. The key thing here being that an end user is
likely to want to use a client library to talk to an openstack cloud,
and they should not need to know which code release their cloud ran on.

We have a todo list item to expand gating for the client libs to run
against both trunk and stable server stuff ... but it's been a little
busy since the ODS and we haven't gotten to it yet.
