sorry for the confusion. This whole page needs a remake.
Also we do lack maintainers to have a release cycle in place at the
Moment. So the only branches to use are unstable and testing atm.
As unstable packages are auto promoted to testing after 14 days if no
bug is opened against that package:

http://buildfarm.opencsw.org/package-promotions/promote-packages.html

Hope that helps.

Greetings
Jan
