We will not branch and develop separately for Indigo. The version of MoveIt! in Indigo will be a near copy of that in Hydro. New features, bug-fixes, etc. will continue to go into Hydro - there are almost always ways to do this without having to break API and we will try to maintain API stability. Everything new that is being released into Hydro will also be ported into Indigo releases. This will allow both users working with the latest distributions and users working with older distributions to keep using MoveIt!.

Let me know if there are any questions/comments about this.

+1 seems like a good idea to me.

I've been supporting multiple ROS versions from a single source since Boxturtle and Cturtle, with relatively few problems, except for the breakage caused by catkin migration.
