Oh, only once or twice for every 3.x release so far :)
but anyway:
Why not branch 3.4 earlier than release? That is how big projects are managed nowadays, you create a staging branch early.
I’d suggest branching it off at b3. There is no reason to keep all trunk development frozen just because a particular version is in RC mode.
There's also no reason to not use a personal clone if you want to develop a new feature.
The question is less for us than for occasional contributors who see their patches or feature requests languish on the tracker, and lose interest.
