Strong ack. The current way of things happening in master makes it almost
impossible to find and pick bugfixes for issues that might happen in a release
that is shipped in a distribution.

gpsd is the only more or less important project I know which doesn't have at
least some kind of stable branch or release or at least a way to find and
track fixes for specific bugs. Together with the funky build system its a
maintenance hell.
