Features are added to the mainline branch, it can be broken from time to |
| 22 |
time. After it's tested it's merged into the stable branch. |

Mainline is like the dev branch and stable is like the master branch. |

If you need higher stability pick the stable releases, if you need new |
| 27 |
features pick the mainline releases. |
