Sanne, all,
Could we please drop the 5.5 branch in the upstream repo. It matches
exactly master (apart from the POM versions), so there is really no
good reason to have it at this point IMHO.
Let's do branches when they actually become necessary. In this case,
work meant only for 5.6 but not for 5.5.1 is about to be merge. Or
just let's do the 5.5.1 release at this point.
The current set-up is confusing, unnecessarily complex and creates
more work than needed (merging PRs to two branches, manage two issue
fix versions etc.).
Thanks,
--Gunnar
