[TCLCORE] "Productive branches"

[Marc C. <cul...@gm...>]

I don't understand this, but it looks very strange to me:
First we have:

- there are productive branches:
core-8-6-branch, core-8-branch, core-9-0-branch, core-9-branch
Missing branches are created when the first 9.1 feature is merged.

Then we have:

- if a branch is ready to merge, please ask for a merge permission it in
the ticket including the proposed branches (e.g. 8.6, 9.0, 9.1).

So that makes it look like we will have "productive branches" 9.0, 9.1.
9.2, 9,.3, 9.4, ....  which seems like a crazy idea to me.

Also, I don't understand why TCT policies are being created outside of the
official communication channel of the TCT, i.e. this list, at video
conferences which occur at 4AM for people on the west coast of the US, with
no discussion on this list.  I thought we had agreed not to do that.

Also, I think it is important to provide a list of attendees at the video
meeting, especially when they are claiming to set policy for the TCT.
