New Version Information

[brookgagnon]

Hi everyone!

We're entering a new phase of development over the next 6 months, focused on stabilizing the API specification, fixing bugs, improving UX (especially for consistency), and providing better debug information for bug reporting. Basically all the stuff that isn't feature development, but will further improve the quality and experience of OB, especially for other developers and DIYers.

We've added 2 new branches to this repo, as follows:

5.2: Version 5.2 is (effective now) feature frozen and will receive bug fixes only.

5.3: Version 5.3 will receive new features and "higher risk" code changes such as refactoring.

The "main" branch will continue to exist but simply be a mirror of the most stable maintained version (currently 5.2).

We should have more information about our development and release process soon, but I wanted to provide this preliminary info as soon as possible.

Thanks!
