16
+initial reaction to it and see if there is no major brown-paper-bag
17
+issues discovered. Following that, majority of topics that have
18
+been cooking in 'next' will be merged to 'master', the tip of 'next'
19
+will be rewound and rebuilt on top of the updated 'master', near the
20
+end of this week. The 'next' branch then will start taking new
21
