Are you volunteering to do the work for this? Or do you just expect us upstream to maintain twice the amount of releases? We don't want to be consumed in just doing release mangament. It's hard enough, and we definitely prefer if developers focus on one master, not many, and stop developing new stuff while we are in release mode. This means, doing parallel branches for upstream development is not in the cards, sorry. Either everyone stabilizes or everyone works on new stuff. Note that there's a "stable" backport tree maintained outside of the main repo: https://github.com/systemd/systemd-stable Either way, I doubt this discussion is relevant to Fedora, is it?
