stable vs. latest

[Egmont Koblinger]

Andrew:  Is it that soon there will be a 4.9.1.x stable and 4.9.x devel
series?  Or you give up this development model and stick to a single branch
from now on?  If the latter, I think it should be made obvious on the
homepage (maybe when 4.8.8 is released), and the "Our release workflow"
page should also be updated.

thanks,
egmont
