I'd prefer to see it simply named after development somehow, and what's 
wrong with a simple brian_development? If it ends up becoming the 4.0 
branch we can merge it then. Given the number of abortive attempts at a 
4.0 branch, I'd rather not name anything that till we have code we really 
want to call 4.0.
