That sounds a bit late for branching considering that the soft-feature freeze 
will happen in 6 days and we still have no idea whether kdepim 4.6 will ever 
be released.

Before reopening kdepim, I believe we should answer Kevin's question about the 
commit strategy/policy in kdepim: develop in master & cherry-pick in branch 
(svn style) or develop new features in staging branches and merge them into 
master when new features become mature (kernel style)
