Well, if things go well, there is a system that could make things 
much simpler. But my thought would that Walter wouldn't need to 
touch the stable branch. The only benefit for the new org is a 
separate set of contributes and separate pull requests.

If this system takes off, while still having a cost to Walter, 
there would be a stable branch which get all the bug fixes and 
the new feature branch. When adding a bug fix just merge the 
stable branch into the feature branch. This won't always be a 
clean merge.

Good luck Adam.
