[DISCUSS] old forward branches

The older forward branches are still heavily used, while the release
branches are open for bug fixes by all. I think people should no
longer use older forward branches and maybe these should even be
deleted. The release branches (except for 4.4) are open for all
committers. I don't think we have or should have a policy on those but
we run the risk of losing work this way and people running old
releases won't benefit from the fixes in those forward branches.

I will merge 4.3-forward into 4.3 later today.
