Bug Description
It's only currently possible to link one existing branch to a release series. It should be possible to link more than one.
For example, the Ubuntu Documentation project has a number of different branches for each Ubuntu derivative: ubuntu-docs, kubuntu-docs, xubuntu-docs and edubuntu-docs. While we could start a project for each of these, we are concerned that this would fragment the group and create unnecessary maintenance, particularly in circumstances where it is already rather artificial for the project to have had to create an "upstream project", rather than being able to work within the Ubuntu project (which is the only place the group's work is published).
As a result we'd like to be able to register a branch for each derivative to a release series.
Tim, this is the multi-series example I was talking about.
