I am confused now. Carsten said is his announcement that master did NOT
contain the 7.01 release:
<quote>
P.S. If you are trying to find the 7.01 release on the master branch
in the repository, you will not. The releases are now on a new branch,
called "maint", which will contain only commits that are also releases.
This will make it easier to make minor fixes to a release while
development
continues on the master branch.

Would this explanation be correct then:
Right now, 7.01 is in the maint branch, for a few days/weeks or so,
until the small nags have been resolved; the master branch is the last
6.36 release. Once the little bugs/issues have been resolved, 7.01 will
be merged with the master branch, and everything will be back to (my)
normal? Is this correct?
Thanks
