I tend to think we don't need a stable branch yet. Not opposed to it if
someone thinks it's necessary though.

There is also the issue of the sugar/sugar-toolkit-gtk3 bits which some
sugar-web features will likely require to modify, webactivity.py and
apisocket.py mostly. I think these are self-contained enough that we can
afford keeping them unfrozen until September 4 (code freeze). At that point
we will branch, so in practice web activities work would never been
interrupted.
