By putting the release on a branch, you can get the effect of shutting down updates to the release virtually indefinately. Updates can even be made the release a substantial amount of time *after* shipment, should a suitably severe problem be found. One need not pick up other changes (even to the same source file!) in order to ship a patch or refresh. Note: what I am suggesting is creating a branch and *never* merging. - Sam Ruby
