right. The rules of the stable release branches should not be changed. We want
our users to be able to trust us.
We promised not to introduce new bugs in a stable release branche. This has
been the age of Samba 3.0.
Changing the rules, that means introduce new features, which will means we will
also introduce new bugs - we will lose trust among our users - with good
cause.
