The branches are like totally seperate directories on your system. This allows us to put new stuff in our normal branch, but in case we're afraid it might break something we don't put it in the release branch. It's also easier for us to backport small fixes/tweaks to a seperate branch of which we know it is stable.
For Linuxport there are ppl working on both the normal branch and the release-branch. In my case I'm (almost) only doing "release-stuff" until 9.04-final. So you can still do nightlies like you did before, you just have to build them from a seperate branch.
So trunk is just the normal (non-stable) Xbox branch that I normally work on.
