Personally, I like this early branching. It’s much more confusing and 
stressful if you change the branch just days before the release.

The solution is of course to move to the summit workflow:
http://techbase.kde.org/Localization/Workflows/PO_Summit

Only one set of files to translate, and never having to worry about 
synchronisation of stable and trunk translations. We (the Norwegian
team) has been using it for almost a year, and are very happy with it.

(At the moment it’s probably best to wait a day or two before 
starting using it, to ensure that all the templates are properly 
updated.)
