In the past we used to wait to branch spin-kickstarts until almost

branches (in most cases) and with very little work being done
specifically for the release past the next one.
For F17 we did the branch close to when the release branched. It was
anticipated that some F18 work would be going on before F17 was released.
There didn't appear to be many issues as a result of this change. People
seemed to remember to commit to both branches. Git makes this easier
than perhaps it would have been under CVS. We did have one case where a
merge of master back into F17 was done instead of cherry picking, but
that wasn't too hard to fix.
Given that background, what would people like to see happen for F18?
I am slightly in favor of branching now, but if most want to wait until
some F19 specific changes are needed, that would be OK with me.
