Alteratively, we could name them like:

/rt/branches/3.0-MAINT
/rt/branches/3.2-STABLE
/rt/branches/3.3-TESTING
/rt/branches/EXPERIMENTAL


when RT 3.4 gets released, this would change to


/rt/branches/3.0-MAINT
/rt/branches/3.2-MAINT  (Was 3.2-STABLE)
/rt/branches/3.4-STABLE   (Was 3.3-TESTING)
/rt/branches/3.5-TESTING (is a copy of what was EXPERIMENTAL)
/rt/branches/EXPERIMENTAL

The biggest danger is people start to think that RT is FreeBSD ;)
