As we discussed during that session, this is still a per-team
decision. Mir is already tracking the development and release in two
different branches, but that was a decision that they made and which
is fine.

Only remember that if you want to maintain two different branches,
you'll also need someone kind of dedicated to track the release branch
(releasing trunk, doing cherry-picks, fast-track for quick fixes and
so on).

We can probably try to propose a guideline for this use case, but
nothing is blocking your team to jump on that right now.
