Okay, I see that, but it appears to me that the quarterly now replaces 
"master".  I think it's better to establish both the master and quarter 
branch, but have the quarter branch switched on by default.  It's not 
"fatal" how it is now, but I've seen new users who would benefit from 
having these two branches already in the system.

I agree it's they aren't worth a delay.  I was just clarifying that they 
would (eventually) be built, and it would follow release in a couple of 
weeks or so.  This also helps people on earlier releases that don't have 
the option of dports.
