Ok.
Hold on...

Let's 'kill' the master branch as it is now.
It's been 'dead' for a long time.

Best way to do this it to rename it to something like 'experimental' (I 
don't know a good name, so if someone comes up with one...)

Then we rename stable to master.

Under git conventions:
- master is used to work towards the next release
- releases are tagged
- branches are to be used for features of which it has not been decided 
that they need to be in the next release, or for features that take more 
time or pose a risk to destabalising or delaying the next release

why?
tags are to point at stable points.

we should release more often

that would be on the master branch

or on feature branches

> Fact 3: the development branch is dead (only useful for archive purpose).

that would be the current stable / new master
