+= Preparing for 2.16.0 =
+
+WebkitGtk+ '''2.16.0''' will be the next release in the stable series (following  [wiki:WebKitGTK/2.14.x 2.14.x]). We should merge not overly intrusive patches that improve stability or performance, fix build issues, etc. We branched at  r212635 (20/02/17).
+
+When filing bugs (http://bugs.webkit.org) against stable release, please prefix them with "[GTK] [Stable]" to ensure they are addressed with high
+priority. Also, running a debug build and including stack traces is highly encouraged.
+(Don't use "[Stable]" if the bug also applies to master, though.)
+
+To get the stable branch code, simply check out
+http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/releases/WebKitGTK/webkit-2.16
+
+Over the next few weeks we'll be merging important fixes into the
+branch, so be sure to stay up to date. Thanks for your help!

+= How to add a webkit-2.16 branch to existing git-svn clone =
+
+If you have already cloned git://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git, it only contains a git-svn clone of the svn trunk. To add webkit-2.16 branch to there, add a new remote to .git/config:
+{{{
+[svn-remote "webkit-2.16"]
+    url = http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/releases/WebKitGTK/webkit-2.16
+    fetch = :refs/remotes/git-svn-webkit-2.16
+}}}
+
+and run the following commands:
+{{{
+git svn fetch webkit-2.16 -r 212635
+git branch webkit-2.16 git-svn-webkit-2.16
+git checkout webkit-2.16
+git svn rebase
