The status is that our present course is to keep master as the "next version"
(25.2), while working in emacs-25 as the "upcoming release". When emacs-25 is
ready to release, we will tag it, merge master to it and work toward 25.2.

Features that are intended for 26 should live on a feature branch right now,
since people should mainly be using emacs-25, or if they are doing advance
work for the next release, master.

Whether we need a "third branch" to aggregate features for 26 is an open
question, and one that should only be answered by a feeling of pressing need.
Until then, we'll stick to two branches (25.1, 25.2) as our main areas of
focus.
