Is it really a good idea to branch at beta? Do we really want to try to
be stabilizing for 1.0 at the same time as we're adding features to the
trunk? It seems wiser to just declare a tight feature freeze and have
our whole community behind the same trunk.

I'd say the appropriate time to branch is when we want to prepare for a
1.0.1 release.
