[OpenLayers-Dev] MOTION: Branch for v3!

[Marc Jansen]

Hi all,

even though I am non-PSC committer, I think a separate branch might be 
the easiest way to go towards 3.0.

Thanks go to Schuyler for "...I volunteer to try to manage the process 
of collating proposed API changes, and to try to stay on top of 
forward-porting future improvements to 2.x to the 3.x branch...", 
because that'll likely be some hard work.

Just my two ¢

Marc
