Hi,
As discussed on the Monday calls, we will create new release branches tomorrow. This most likely includes not only the new ET_2013_05 branch, but also a new Cactus release (the last was one year ago).
This does *not* mean a new release just yet. The code on these branches will receive further testing, and the release is scheduled for in about two weeks.
This means two things for the time after this happened:
- trunk will be open again, like usual - (some) fixes should be committed to all (two, or three) branches: trunk, the ET and the Cactus release branch. We know this is inconvenient, but this is why we had the development branch closed for major additions for some time. If you have something in your pipeline and would like to avoid a double/triple commit, do so before tomorrow.

The branches are now created, called ET_2013_05 and Cactus_4.2.0. Any fixes that should go into the release will have to be committed to these branches (in addition to trunk).
trunk/master is now 'open' again, with usual non-release commit policies.
Any further release-testing should happen using the relevant release thorn lists.
