Not 5 minutes later did I find this in another thread:

So the next branch is a temporary replacement for master while
master is frozen awaiting a release?

Perhaps on the worg developer page?

It's really a temporary thing because I didn't want to push more changes
into master. It will go away as soon as Org 9.2 is out, which shouldn't
be too long now. I don't think we need a documentation for that.
