Any new developments can only go in rc1 release. 4.3 merge window is
already open so new developments cannot be added to 4.3-rc1. New codes
has to go to 4.4-rc1.
4.3-rc2 - 4.3-rc7 (or 8) can only have fixes.

Greg please correct me if I am wrong. I should not have replied here but
this is a good opportunity to test my understanding of the release
cycle. :)
