Steven is handing over the 4.4 to me (*). So I'll maintain the 4.4-rt
and 4.4-cip-rt. I'll expect that they wont differ too much. Famous last
words.

Steven will ask the k.o folks to give me permission to upload to
projects/rt/4.4. In short nothing should change for 4.4-rt support as
long Greg is releasing 4.4.

As for 4.4-cip(-rt), it might make sense to have a project/cip shared
folder with the 4.4-cip and 4.4-cip-rt tree.

Ben, what's your stand on this?

Thanks,
Daniel

(*) I finally figured out the last pieces how to do a release and
upload to k.o.
