I do think we would be better served by shifting more to the feature branch way of doing things. Once one does this, the develop branch become superfluous.
Considering the master branch is closed to merges for over a month during each release cycle, the develop branch gives dependent libraries a good time window to test out new changes before merging into master. Otherwise, in the event of a regression, the amount of changes in master could become overwhelming for the release manager.
