Do we really want to keep updating older branches at all? Could we
have a policy which says we'll put new development effort into the
devel/ branch, and effectively freeze the previous branches? The
freeze would only be broken if (a) there was a necessary security
update or (b) someone files a BZ to get a package backported. I feel
this would mean less work all round for packagers.

of each branch
Also have a look at Dan's tools for tracking native/MinGW
versions:
