We have had this time of uncertainty of the pair isabelle-dev vs. afp-devel
after the fork of isabelle-dev to isabelle-release routinely in the past few
years.

AFP we often had many days, sometimes 1-2 weeks (IIRC).

So can this be organized in a better way?
E.g. have the "call to finalize AFP" earlier in the process and maybe have a
separate "afp-release" fork for it.

Note that I will occasionally merge isabelle-release back to isabelle-dev
before final lift-off. It will happen within 2-3 days, for example.
