Aah... Naming, my favorite pastime :) "Distribution" makes sense,
although it's a bit overloaded too. "Integration" is overloaded too.
"Delivery", maybe. "Release and stable branch management" is what we've
been calling it so far, but it's a mouthful.

We could potentially lump vulnerability management in the same program,
since after all it's about handling and distributing security fixes,
with a strong focus on stable branches. But since that's a different
group that could warrant a separate program.
