> 2) CI requirements for supported branches.

> branches,
> 
>     update .mergify configuration file to support merging of stable/*
> branches,
> 
>     and update GitHub branch protection settings to protect stable/*

> 3) A stable/* branch is only supported until the next edk2-stable tag release.

> 
> 
> 4) Release requirements for supported branches.

> 
> 
>    Proposal: If there are a significant number of critical fixes applied to
> 
>    a stable/* branch, then a request for a release can be made that would
> 
>    trigger focused testing of the supported branch and creation of a new
> 
>    release.  If all testing passes, then a tag is created on the stable/*
> 
>    branch and a release is created on GitHub that summarizes the set of
> 
>    critical fixes and the testing performed.

>    Tag Example : edk2-stable202011.01

> Please let me know if you have any feedback or comments on this proposal.
